2024 Retrospective... in *all the projects* (except ATCs/ATCoins)

I have no idea what category to put this in, since I’m posting projects of various types in one post… but since most of my projects are paper-based, I chose paper & vinyl. Mods, please feel free to move this if there’s a better place for it.

I liked showing off all the ATCs/ATCoins I made in 2024, so I thought I’d make a post of all my other 2024 projects.

The first volume in my “How to Adult” series. I completed the project from beginning to end: writing, editing, cover design, publishing. This is the first edition, I created a second 6x9 edition, and this one is now “out of print” (read: when you do it all yourself, you’re bound to make a lot of mistakes. Start over with a new edition :joy:)
