One-of-a-kind Ammonite art book up for auction now!

A special item has just gone up for auction to support a fundraising for Locus, the original and best SFF trade magazine. The item in question is a handmade art book based on Ammonite—even some of the paper is handmade, special Japanese paper; the art is all linocuts, hand printed; the type is letterpress—signed by both me and the artist, Vicki Platts-Brown. (Vicki, if you recall, is the creator of several prints hanging on our walls—a gorgeous birch tree, two herons, a brilliant rooster—plus the huge collage we call Petalville.)

To tempt you, here’s a gallery of images you can click through:

Note the gorgeous texture of everything. And, as you can see, there’s some ingenious folding, a case with a tiny little gold magnet, gold (I think? might be wrong) ink, and just a really interesting concept.

So the book-as-piece-of-art is in itself a wondrous thing. But more to the point it is up for auction for a worthy cause. Locus is one of the linchpins of the SFF genre, essentially the journal of record for the field, and has been for decades. It’s been a nonprofit for a while now, and they know how to make a dollar stretch. But to maintain the reviews, the archives, the interviews, the reporting on major SFF events, moments, and milestones does cost money.

As my item will be auctioned, I don’t know what price range to expect—though I can can tell you the floor is $400. Here’s the auction link. It will be live for 7 days:

If this iteration of Ammonite is currently beyond your budget, no worries, there are many other wonderful ways to support Locus and the genre the magazine itself supports.

Some examples:

• signed books and collectibles by famous authors
• signed original art
• mugs and t-shirts
• one-on-one Zoom chat with Famous Authors
• groups Zoom chats with authors
• personalised critiques of your story
• many more!

Please go take a look and consider supporting their work.

Meanwhile, again, the auction for the Ammonite art book is live from today at 12 noon PST and last for 7 days:
