I typeset and printed my book proposal as *an actual book*, and this was so much fun.pic.twitter.com/ArbQFl8UXm
Even though I still have a lot to write, it’s incredibly rewarding to see it becoming real in this way. (Footnotes! Illustrations!)pic.twitter.com/NFoXZEYG9r
I even cut my own font (based on one of @djrrb’s excellent fonts) to depict the keys.pic.twitter.com/f2L3CTzml7
Also, recreated this old style of showing keys in Sketch.pic.twitter.com/KePS8kbdun
Printing one copy of a book is not so hard, and not really expensive, either. (I explored it last year here: https://medium.com/@mwichary/my-experiences-printing-a-small-batch-of-books-c04141b63dfe?source=linkShare-b55535a4ac78-1494626685 ….)
Please keep your fingers crossed for the rest! (And mega thanks to @katelaurielee for her tremendous help in all this.)
Here are some screenshots of me working on the “key font,” which is so much fun, even though I am basically just adding a rounded border.pic.twitter.com/YNt0tJyp42
(It feels like difficulties with styling inline text just follow me from project to project. Also see: Medium underlines.)
Since I haven’t done it in a while… Even though research ended and writing started months ago, the books keep coming.pic.twitter.com/a9bEFRgqrm
The current list of chapter titles; a lot of them written already. Really happy with how some of them turned out so far.pic.twitter.com/vt67ay3tX0
Since I’m writing out of order, after finishing a chapter I need to revisit other chapters and tie them closer together.pic.twitter.com/6FxX1YxKJs
Just spent three days immersed in the research of the world of mobile keyboards. Writing tomorrow! (
