Does This Look Like Rock 'N Roll?

I finally have an idea for the cover and I went out and bought these things to help. Doesn't really look like Rock 'N Roll does it? That's OK, I'm pretty sure it will when I finish with it. I'm starting the covers this weekend so I don't get too terribly behind.

We have about 22 people signed up and I'm hoping a few more will join in. This is what I get for forgetting about the book completely. 30 is a good number, 40 was the goal, but 30 will still make a great book. I'll be doing two pages and I'll be inviting everyone else to do two. Anyone who does two pages gets two books. In the past, I've had people give the second book to a friend or relative and I've also had one person add it to a school fundraising auction. Pretty cool idea.

Late Start

I'm off to a late start on this year's fatbook, but at least I'm off to a start. I've been agonizing and sketching out ideas for the cover all morning, but Rock and Roll art just isn't coming naturally to me so this one will be tough. I'm excited that within one day of announcing the fatbook, we are 1/4 full. Ten doesn't sound like a very impressive number, but it is a great start to a late start.
