Stacking the Shelves (45)

Stacking the Shelves

One of the books in this week’s stack (The Spook Lights Affair) is not scheduled to be published until December! I’m not sure whether to be delighted to have so much time to get a round tuit, or appalled that the year is passing by so quickly. <groan>

GIMP Wilber mascotOn another topic, someone asked how I make the graphic of all the book covers. I use GIMP, an open-source graphics program that is available free and supposed to be every bit as powerful as Photoshop. GIMP certainly does everything I need it to. (If you decide to use GIMP, it’s good karma to support the project.)

Photographing the actual books isn’t an option, almost all my books are in the key of “e”.  Only the library book is a print book, and I’m not allowed to keep it more than three weeks.

If I got this many print books every week, our apartment would have sunk down into the one below by now! 😉
