Quote of the day...

“There is immeasurably more left inside than what comes out in words. Your thought, even a bad one, while it is with you, is always more profound, but in words it is more ridiculous and dishonorable.”

—	Dostoevsky

After a daring critique with some AMAZING writers and illustrators I am excited about the next draft. Dropping the rhyme, going ahead with the accordion book format and building the new book dummy like I envisioned originally, shifting the artwork into the 24 page format - maybe 32 with the layout adjustment & finally punching the graphics with some additional layering....  seems worthwhile to see through to the final revision which is probably several more revisions away. Be the Kite!!
