The Manchester Anthology: February 2011
http://manchesteranthology.blogspot.com/2011_02_01_archive.html
How to build a book, in quite a few uneasy steps. Saturday, 26 February 2011. Welcome to the website for the Manchester Anthology 2011. This is the official collection of new fiction from the 2011 graduates of the Manchester University MA in creative writing. Called 'one of the highest-profile creative writing courses in the English-speaking world' by The Independent.

The Manchester Anthology: March 2011
http://manchesteranthology.blogspot.com/2011_03_01_archive.html
How to build a book, in quite a few uneasy steps. Saturday, 26 March 2011. This is a post about scheduling. Fittingly, it's late. Adding a week on for paranoia time, it seemed sensible for press to be around three weeks before the date we want the thing released.

This is the problem I have with blogging: I can only seem to get round to doing it when I have nothing to say. So what has been going on in the Manchester Anthology secret lab? Cover design. There'll be a draft up here soon. Suffice to say it's looking pretty foxy. Barcoding. This happens after the ISBN arrives, and is easier than I was expecting: it basicall...

The Manchester Anthology: Walking to the mail
http://manchesteranthology.blogspot.com/2011/05/walking-to-mail.html
How to build a book, in quite a few uneasy steps. Friday, 27 May 2011. Walking to the mail. In which Alec wishes he had a much snazzier camera on his telephone. For today there was post, and it was good. I'm now clutching the advance proof of the anthology. Okay, I'm not clutching it right. Look, it has three dimensions!
