Apparently I never posted this. *headdesk*

This is from The Red Shoes shoot a couple of years ago, of the Epic C, who was total game from minute one when we met. Wait, WAIT till you see him as the Red Knight. HEE!

I love men who do construction.

In other, equally epic news, Hunt Press passed its milestone of having sold over 1,000 books this week.

The hugeness of this for a micropress is entirely impossible to describe adequately in words. Epic. Huge. Enormous. Fantastic. Beyond wonderful.

When I look back on July of 2006 when I officially opened the doors of the press and thought, "Damn it, I'm smarter than the average bear, I can fucking do this..."

Well. You think those things, but you also doubt.

I do not personally know 1,000 people. The authors don't know 1,000 people. Which means that total strangers to us bought books. Total strangers have emailed me or the authors to tell us how much the book they bought meant to them.

It's the starfish story all over. Do these books matter to everyone?

No. But it mattered to 1,000 people.

Now let's get 2,500.

And to say I am pathetically, tearing up happy/grateful is to not even come close to how full my heart is today.

A nice ass is always a good way to start the day. (Plus he's a sweetie and remembering that photo shoot always makes me smile.)

I am still smiling from the numbers as well. I always knew you could do this, but I am happy to see the universe obeying my dictates so nicely. LOL

I love the use of black and white in this one. Makes the light magickal.

Thank you!!!

I'm on a bit of a black & white kick right now, since I have recently acquired a set of awesome filters that make some of the cross processing that I've always loved much easier to emulate.

Gorgeous shot. As always. I'm quite pleased at these little gems and quite happy that Ysabetwordsmith pointed me this way (or was it the Crowdfunding community???).

Congratulations to Hunt Press! May it be the first of many milestones!

Thank you!!!

Probably both ysabetwordsmith *and* crowdfunding. I'm deeply indebted to both for their support.

And thank you again! We're still doing the kermitflail dance of joy over here.
