Scribbled Lives 2025 - Bound

Scribbled Lives bound... 32 pages including covers. Not sure what this binding is called or if it's just something I made up... 4 ply brown waxed linen thread.

I've had a good 5 years with Scribbled Lives, but like with everything else, things come to a close and I've decided not to continue in 2026.

PS this will be my last Scribbled Lives post. I've decided not to join for 2026. I've had a good 5 years...
