she really, really likes it

the journal of Michael Werneburg

twenty-seven years and one million words

Tokyo, 2010.08.31

Mari came home late in the evening last night and found her belated gift of a photo book waiting for her. She loved it!

I have to say, Blurb have made some great strides in quality recently. Their (hard-cover) books have always been good, but now (about a year after my first order from them) I've seen a substantial improvement. The prints look better, the paper seems finer, and the cover looks particularly good. Mari agrees, it's a big refinement over the previous quality.

Well done, blurb.

When destiny comes to a man from outside, it lays him low, just as an arrow lays a deer low. When destiny comes to a man from within, from his innermost being, it makes him strong, it makes him into a god…
