It’s a little sad the local school has to turn to donations for new buildings, when the UK government is spending all that money on CC cameras that aren’t helping vs. crime. Maybe UKGov could sell prints from those camera images to fund school buildings?

I was at a friend’s house, and they’d taken it out of the library, so I spent much of the evening borrowing their copy (which again, they’d borrowed from the library) and reading about 75% of it.
The next day I went out and bought my own copy of the book on my way to work. Read all but the final chapter, and managed to leave it in my car on lunch. So I ended up reading the final chapter and appendixes via the free online ebook.

Or the short version, in my one reading of Little Brother I managed to do it via library loan, borrowing from a friend, physical purchase & free ebook.

But yes, it is a nice idea, I’m always happy when people try out new business ideas.

I must say, I was a bit surprised that the shipping was nearly twice the price of what I was paying for.

Still, I, like the others, was pleased to see the $8 option, so even those who may not normally be able to participate in such an exercise can!

The idea of a portrait with all your treasured, or important objects around you is a great way of making a portrait more personal.

“Shipping costs are actual postage costs although currency conversion rates may vary. Artifacts will only be shipped insured (signed for by recipient), in hard-backed envelopes with both Manuscript page and Photograph in Archival Sleeves.”

Works in this case, however.
