One of my most popular post is about how to create papertoys (How to create your own papercraft<\/a>).
\nIt seems that a lot of people are interested in papertoys and how to make themselves.
\nOn Nice paper toys<\/a> (NPT) this question pops up now and again on the forum<\/a>.
\nYou can buy a book about it, if you want to know more about it: Urban paper toys<\/a> (well you should buy this book anyhow because I’m in it \ud83d\ude42 ). <\/p>\n

But besides my post about this subject you’re on your own…..
\nWell perhaps not for long! I’ve been playing with this idea for a while now of making a tutorial series about papertoy and how you can make one yourself. That got me thinking….
\nIt seems that people really enjoy making\/creating papertoys, so why not make a book about it?<\/p>\n

…… hmmm a book, I have never thought about writing a book (grammar is not really my thing, not in English and not in my native tongue), I never wrote a book or designed one (well… not recently).
\nSo I have no idea where this series is taking me, but here it is:<\/p>\n

I want to make a “book” about creating\/designing Urban Paper toys. But I’m a internet designer\/developer, I have no experience with book design, no experience with writing a book and no idea how to do it.
\nIt doesn’t matter, I have my blog. I can write and rewrite as much as I want.
\nAnd I have something that a conventional writer doesn’t have: User generated feedback….. (no idea what that means? It’s you<\/strong> giving me comments\/advice\/whatever and helping me write this “book” by giving comments).<\/p>\n

I say “book” because you don’t really need the book, because you can read it on my blog. But for the less internet savy peeps I can create a download link for a e-book or a you can buy a book.
\nI have searched for options to Self Publish<\/em> and I found a couple, but these two sites seem to popup the most: lulu.com\/<\/a> and booksurge.com\/<\/a>.
\nBut before I can think about that, I need to write about papertoys and how they are made.<\/p>\n

So this week I’m focusing on how I will do this on my blog.
\nBut in the mean time, use the comments to show me what you want to know<\/p>\n

And perhaps we<\/strong> will write a book \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
