Well, the campaign for A Magnificent Madness & The Line in the Sand has reached its end and my numbers fell short, but I wanted to thank everyone for their support. This has been a great experience no matter what. Just like in my story help came from many surprising places and I made some new friends along the way. I won’t forget everyone’s kindness. 

The story will get published one day, even if I have to go through a vanity press, but I will be checking out other options in the meantime. 

I attached a jpeg of the book’s new cover I was able to design in my Illustration Techniques class at TRI-C. The silhouettes were hand drawn then layered in Photoshop over a photograph. The type was laid out and given special effects in Adobe Indesign. Hopefully, I will be using it sooner than later.
