ehydeSo I'm working on another book project, and what happened was I found some cheap drawing paper at the craft store and said to myself, this feels like an old paperback, I should make a book out of this. And my first thought was something horror ish, because this was about a week before Halloween, so I picked out one of my favorite horror ish fics, and printed it on that paper, and it looked good, and eh whatever if it's not archival quality, it's cool right?
...and then the fic's author (who hasn't seen any of this yet) posted a very intense thread on twitter about how we're losing so much history because of books printed on acidic paper that are literally disintegrating and I therefore reprinted the entire thing .
