Maybe I Will Get my Book Written Now that I Have a Design Started

Hi all,

I began writing a book of my six-week workshop, Igniting Your Intentions™in 2005. My my, how time flies.

Now that I am in graphic design class, one of our assignments is to design a book cover. This gives me the perfect opportunity to begin again.

The image on the left is my first go at designing the book jacket cover. The book itself will be another design project.

I'll keep you posted as the design evolves. I welcome your comments and feedback.

Have a creative day,
Mary
