(I changed the title of this series of posts—finally!—because Working on the new book sounds really lame. Anyway…)

Today, I began raiding a past project for some layout ideas. From July 2009 through June 2010, I worked on creating one new layout for each day. For the most part, I succeeded (though there were a few days I had to play catch-up).
