It is #NationalLibraryWeek and our way of celebrating is unwrapping a new purchase of publishers’ bindings. It was hard to pick one group to highlight because we adore every beautiful binding that was revealed, but ultimately settled on this trio of pocket-sized books. We are biblio nerds and we are not ashamed.
writing advice: never italicize words to show emphasis! if you’re writing well then the reader will know and you don’t need them!
me: oh really??? listen up, pal, you can just try an pull italics from my cold, dead fingers
I feel this on a spiritual level.
bringing back this great example.
I can and will italicize the fuck out of my writing, thank you very much.
you can pry italics out of my cold dead hands
