Follow the Grain

The making of my book is coming along nicely. I had to make a few adjustments to my original plans but so far I haven't screwed everything up. Yea, me! It is taking a little more time than I planned. Finding my supplies was the first set back and going to dinner last night with my girlfriend was the second setback (even though it is not much of a setback at all and it was well worth the extra day) ;)

Tonight, I plan to finish the front cover. And rework the layout of the pages. I have gone from a vertical layout to a horizontal layout. I screwed up and went against the grain. (I even looked and checked but it was not easy to tell which way the grain was going)

In other words, when you put a book together follow the grain it will lead you in the right direction.
