I include a research portion about the history of the London Underground, but the majority of the book is a narrative focused on specific moments during my time there, with each moment centered around a location in London. The segments all begin with a set of directions explaining how to get to that location from the previous segment&#8217;s location via the Underground. I chose to do a Coptic binding for the book to signify the physical tying together of my memories. The front cover is grey while the back cover is a combination of yellow, green, red, and blue to signify the fact that my experience in London brought me much needed excitement, adventure, and life experience. The colors on the back cover are also the colors of the main Underground lines that I rode while I was there, and both covers are hand-painted paste paper.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_3311\" style=\"width: 358px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/bsuenglish.files.wordpress.com\/2013\/12\/bb1.jpg\" rel=\"lightbox-0\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3311\" class=\"size-large wp-image-3311\" alt=\"bb1\" src=\"http:\/\/bsuenglish.files.wordpress.com\/2013\/12\/bb1.jpg?w=500\" width=\"348\" height=\"461\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-3311\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">*Photo Provided by Tara Olivero<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Holly Miller: For this project, I wrote a creative fiction story.\u00a0 I wanted my book to look like a traditional book I could find in a bookstore, but with an old-fashioned look to it.\u00a0 I made a casebook and covered it in two different colors of blue, which reflects part of my story.\u00a0 It was a difficult experience to make four books that looked identical, but it is rewarding afterward.\u00a0 I now have four books that I\u2019ve written, formatted exactly as I wanted it, and painstakingly pieced together.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_3316\" style=\"width: 510px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/bsuenglish.files.wordpress.com\/2013\/12\/img_0893.jpeg\" rel=\"lightbox-1\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3316\" class=\"size-large wp-image-3316\" alt=\"*Photo Provided by Holly Miller\" src=\"http:\/\/bsuenglish.files.wordpress.com\/2013\/12\/img_0893.jpeg?w=500\" width=\"500\" height=\"375\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bsu-wpe-blogs.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2013\/12\/10100047\/img_0893.jpeg 4000w, https:\/\/bsu-wpe-blogs.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2013\/12\/10100047\/img_0893-300x225.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/bsu-wpe-blogs.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2013\/12\/10100047\/img_0893-768x576.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/bsu-wpe-blogs.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2013\/12\/10100047\/img_0893-1024x768.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/bsu-wpe-blogs.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2013\/12\/10100047\/img_0893-933x700.jpeg 933w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-3316\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">*Photo Provided by Holly Miller<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Amanda Layne: I chose to double bind my book so I could include blank lined paper in addition to my research.
