Universe in the Red
Dec. 17th, 2011 03:28 amSo.
I was hoping to finish Universe in the Red this weekend. However, it turns out that while I've made a number of books in QuarkXpress, I've never actually built a book in QuarkXpress. There's an entire new world of functionality here for me to learn and explore, and I'm getting lost in the wonderfulness of it all, and taking this as an opportunity to learn how to do a book properly, instead of my way.
Which is good, because after three months of silence, John Gilmore just got back in touch with me to start working on the layout for his Bonnie and Clyde book. We've been working on that thing for years ... I hope it finally is going to see print. Granted, there is always the chance (as has been done in the past) that he will decide in the middle of working on one book to suddenly switch to a different book entirely.
