elfsI spent most of today either at the library, or hacking on the print edition of Aimee, which will be the next book from Pendorwright Press. It'll be 168 pages long, and will incorporate the first two novels in the Aimee series (okay, the only two books so far).
I used the stock Palatino font set for my typeset of Sterlings, but for Aimee, which is more of a fantasy novel, I switched to the elegant Centaur typeface, which I absolutely fell in love with after reading Jeanette Winterson's The World and Other Places, and I think I got it absolutely right.
For the page design, I switched away from the Science Fiction Manuscript and went with the straight Novel style. This took quite a bit of relearning, but I think I've got it down just fine. At the very least, I'm not getting any errors.
One thing I'm bad about in book design, though, is covers. Any one got any suggestions? Recommendations for a good graphic designer?
