When I started this blog, I certainly intended for there to be a tad more regularity between posts than once every three months. However, things at the Press have kept me falling-down-dead busy as of late, and whenever the time came to prioritize and re-prioritize my project list, the blog was a frequent casualty.
After learning a valuable lesson in workload management this past Thursday, I had finally gotten enough cleared from my plate to be able to dedicate at least a few hours to designing a cover for this year's summer quarterfold, 100 Things to do this Summer. It's a pretty big deal, since we're running it on glossy stock on some new equipment that the press crew is especially excited about.
At the end of three and a half hours of a complete and utter creative block, I finally printed out proofs to distribute for the approval of various parties, somewhere around 8:30pm. I have to say I'm pretty happy with the result. But what looked good at 8:30 at night on Thursday after two Mindsweepers might not look as good at 8:30 Monday morning. We'll see.
If it makes it through, I'll be posting it in my print design page soon after. Also, I've finally put up a few blogs I'm following in the highly unlikely chance you get bored with this one.
