What I did:
Designs for "I want to Immigrate" booklet: 9 hours
Meeting Franc: 1 hour
Thesis: 4 hours
Title inspiration searching: 3 hours
What I encountered, accomplished, .....:
Franc had a lot of good pointers and ideas for the design and grid of my booklets.
Megan's tips for my writing were great, not too many fixes just some ideas. There are a lot of documents like "affidavits of an authentic marriage" that maybe I could put in examples for. I will have to ask Susan about that.
I've found some really interesting quotes that are getting in the right direction for a title for this series of booklets. It needs to be something that resonates as American to international people but isn't too "stars and stripes". I also don't want it to be overused or cliche.
I'm not going to post images because I don't really have much new to show since tuesday and the last few blog comments I've gotten said that it's hard to see what is going on in the images I post.
Whats Next:
Stats 350 exam tonight...yuck.
Finish the Immigrant book and get started on the other two. I feel like I have a good handle on the language I am using and the grid now so it will be a lot of plugging and chugging for the other two booklets now. Hopefully by the end of spring break I will have the content in place for all three.
I'm also trying to work a little bit with color.

Claire,
Sounds like you are moving forward full steam ahead-- and yes titles are a hard!
It's tought to distill the spirit of a project into something that sounds good (but oh so satisfying when you have.)
I look forward to stopping by and seeing what's cooking in person.
