Aether. Is. Here.
15 years ago
I'm going to make this short and very sweet, and I'll follow-up with another formal post but I'm just sitting here holding my second copy of Aether fresh from the press, and I have to admit, I am really excited! This copy is incredible, and looking really, really good! A special thank you to all of the artists who took the extra time to resubmit work; It really pops!
So without further ado:
AETHER d'ANIMAUX VOLUME 1 IS OFFICIALLY READY!
For those of you looking to order (just in time for Anthrocon!), here's the link to Lulu.com:
http://www.lulu.com/product/paperba.....c-art/11183201
(Lulu's search feature may not find Aether for a day or so, as I just activated the sale like 10 minutes prior to this journal post).
Distributor orders (Amazon, Barnes N' Noble, etc) are not yet ready (I'm still jumping through the international/distribution hoops) but will be sometime AFTER Anthrocon 2010.
Right now, Lulu.com is offering free shipping within the continental U.S.
For those interested in a discounted price, please PM me. This is a long topic I will address in my next post.
Formal post and pictures to follow.

Aether is a collection of other artist's works, assembled in an Art Book format similar to Spectrum, Exposé, American Illustration, etc. In this book, only artisans that submitted works specifically to be included were used.
Means a bunch to me!
And if there is a 2nd Volume, hopefully my art is more improved by then and can submit something better.

Admit it, you licked the cover. :)
When it does I’ll celebrate.
Lulu is asking that I make a 1/2" Live Area throughout the publication (which it currently has, but Lulu is considering everything to be within that Live Area, including page numbers and other design elements (which is very conservative in my experience). Right now the page numbers are low and outside that live area, so I will have to re-grid the whole book to meet these restrictions. Until I do, the global distribution process will be denied and this is tied in with the ISBN number. So alas. Nothing is ever easy ^_-
