It's been several months without an update on this blog, let's make a little change with a big one ! Since the summer, we were very busy and a team change took place, here is the summary of the previous episodes.

Magnitude 9 was released in early September and had a very short first life in bookstores, it was out of stock in late September and we have just received copies of the second edition, so you can order it again. Artist's copies are not yet sent but don't worry, they'll be for sure!

In late September we had the honor printing the artbook XA: Colors! This is a colorful, joyful, explosive and inspiring book! Feel free to check it out, it is really worth a good long look. For those who do not know XA, he is the principal designer of DOFUS and WAKFU at Ankama Games.

In early October the Workshop was held! Everything went perfectly and you can see some photos and reports on the forum, by following this link.

A few days after a restorative short break, we were preparing the book came out of Rémi Maynègre, to be published end February 23 this year, after several delays and tons of adventures! This travel diary while in watercolor traces their journey in Tokyo, with fresh eyes. This is the first of three planned volumes, the story comes in French and Japanese at the same time.

Meanwhile, our first photographs book was at the printers in Italy. Chernobyl: 25 years later takes us to Prypiat city and its surroundings, it provides a photographic inventory of the city where nature has reclaimed its rights, before its opening to tourism. The route in the city is an intense and timeless experience. The high quality photos of the two authors walk us amidst the ruins of a still toxic ghost town. Expected release Nov. 24. Check the the first pages of the book here.

On November 26 we will be at the Pop'Up Fair at the Cité des Sciences in La Villette for a day of presentation and sale of books : just in time for your early Christmas shopping, enjoy it, you will be offered a board stickers CFSL with four adorable bunnies!

Finally, we will be at the Angoulême Festival in late January! There will be more info about our presence and signings to be held here soon. One thing is certain Rémi Maynègre's book : Trip to Japan will be available before its official release, and the author will perform some of his beautiful watercolors on your books!

Workshop CFSL 2010

2010-01-22 12:29:19 | posted by Kness

Tomorrow! Tomorrow will be the first CFSL Workshop in our premises near Republic. After a few years of reflection on the subject, of requests for our authors, and desires of all sides, we embark on the adventure. This first full-scale workshop is primarily a test for us, we will be able to see who is interested in the experience, how we do, who can make what, and this is why we chose to operate on invitation only, for once.

If the experiment is conclusive, and no doubt it will be, we anticipate an open to the public edition with a capacity much larger, more activities and speakers in the end of 2010:)

Come back here soon for the record in pictures of this creative week-end !
