Okay, so I changed my whole plan for the book. No journal stuff, not illustrations that look like other people’s illustrations. I was walking in the mall today when a couple of us encountered an awkward moment. We laughed about it for awhile after and then the idea popped into my head that I could make an awkward book about universally awkward moments. So basically, I’m collecting 15-20 situations that people find awkward. I’m not using a font, it’s going to be handwritten, not aligned well, slanted if that’s the way it’s written.. the illustrations to go with it are going to be pen drawn and simplistic. In other words, it’s going to be awkward. Lots of white space like an awkward silence. It sounds like this would take little effort, but let me tell you, making something appear awkward is extremely aggravating. I’m making this book basically for everyone to relate to. This suits my skills and interests as my artistic aesthetic is simplistic and this will be very simple. For example, the front cover of the book is just going to say “awkward” in a small font.
