TINY BOOKS FROM MERITAGE PRESS' Minitage Editions

(click on images to enlarge)

Although I've not wished to collect blank journals or blank books, many have come my way just by hanging around miniature books. To turn these journals into "books," I occasionally create projects through which I can hand-write into the journals or ask other writers and artists to do so. I "publish" these books through my Meritage Press' tiny book imprint, Minitage Editions. Here are the results (to date):
