Middle Ground, Book-dummy #4, 2018 copyright Douglas Stockdale One of the take-aways from the leporello book-dummy kit that I had received from the printer was some additional design tweaks to the cover. Two days ago I received a couple of samples of the revised cover design; I think a Winner is in the House! To... Continue Reading →
