So I haven't really talked about how things are going with my course for a while, mostly because everything that is happening is really internal issues. BUT last week we did get the first couple of actual illustrations from our illustrator, Julie for The Day Boy and The Night Girl - you can see the front cover illustration over here. The production team is currently working on cover designs using those illustrations, which is really fun. We also hit our minimum crowdfunding goal for Ah Dinnae Ken, which is really awesome - while we are of course hoping to be able to hit our overall goal, just hitting our minimum goal means we are going to be able to basically double our print run.
Overall, though it is both challenging and stressful, school is still going quite well - I've got a really great team for the live projects, which is helping making them fun even as they are busy!
It was really sunny the other day, so some of us ended up on the front steps during our lunch break (if you are wondering why there are so many girls - Jonny is actually the only guy in our 18-person team).

It's always great to hear about your program. This experience of everything from start to finish must be so valuable.
