Maybe I can Design and/or Art Direct...
I did an ad for the WestEnder. For those of you in town, it'll be in this Thursday's issue. It's also on our church homepage. I hope it turns out okay, apparently there were some little technical glitches.

It's amazing with the creative process... especially my own personal creative process... and especially my own personal creative process as pertains to design... I feel like I can be very hit-and-miss, then some days it really works, and it really works more quickly than I think it would, and I tell myself "...that came out of me?!". Not that this was an epiphany of that calibre (ironically, I don't know if I sense a strong copywriter presence here), but it felt like a nice little ad. I have to tip a very large hat to bittbox.

Since doing this, I got compliments on the design from two people who do this sort of thing for a living, one being David Yu, my old AD partner at Harfield (and he'd tell me straight up if it wasn't so...). Ta, I blush... (I don't even know exactly what "ta" means but somebody semi-famous wrote in it an email to me once and it was just so British-ish cute!)
