I'm past due for a new #introduction post! 😳

We've been on break all winter but we're getting ready to start up our daily #LittleFreeLibrary posts again in February. We've got tons of new #books, new #movies for the #FreeBlockbuster, and lots of donations for the #LittleFreePantry we put up last year. This year, we plan to add a #FreeLittleArtGallery as our last feature. Our #SilentBookClub has been hit or miss since we're in a #rural town, but the one that our friends run in the nearby city has really taken off!

As for myself, I've still been #writing almost daily. I've got a lot of material ready for my book-thing, #NotAHeroStory! In fact, I'm going to do a big round of #editing soon to trim it down. (If you're curious, it's a #fantasy that doesn't take itself too seriously but involves a lot of #PersonalGrowth and #community building. Plus #beer, #boobs, and #dragons.) I'm hoping to start #publishing it a little later this year!

Anyway, you stay classy, Fediverse!

I got out to the local botanical gardens again today since it was sunny and in the 40's F. Not our normal January weather and will be changing again to cold in a few days. I found another little free library off the main path.

After 2 weeks of no activity, 3 books were gone from my #LittleFreeLibrary this morning. I get positively giddy when I know it's being used.

FREE BOOKS opens with almost 50 architectural oblique drawings of minibiebs to introduce readers to the subject of inquiry. 🖊️📐

Anti-perspectival visual representations have been used for more than two thousand years across various cultures, epochs and fields. They remain popular to this date in technical drawing applications, as well as for world-building in retro (inspired) video games. Relying on parallel projection, this style of illustration produces a scaled down replica of the subject of inquiry. Thereby, it preserves its actual measurements and avoiding the distortions inherent to a more “realistic” one-point perspective.

By staging street libraries and their immediate surroundings in this pared-down style, the book allows readers to take in the core functional and architectural characteristics that define these structures in an idealised setting. Taken together, the illustrations, which are stitched together along a consistent grounding line, act as a diorama that allows readers to appreciate the full diversity and richness of this infrastructural phenomenon. From a functional perspective, these pages also act as an elongated table of contents for the subsequent presentation of the full typology of minibiebs.
