The book is nearing completion, and I’ve finished all of the writing and the layout as of yesterday. The writing has been dropped into the layout, and tomorrow I’ll be working on dropping all of the project photos in as well. There’s a small handful of photos that I need to take again, because I’m…
It’s always exciting for me when I finish the cover of a book I’m working on; somehow it makes everything feel more real.
