That's too bad Book! I hope you can keep up the momentum and join in again soon. Take it easy :)
Note to others, it would be a shame to lose momentum at this point since this is where you start producing the real work and get one piece totally finished and some linked pieces to work on for your folio in the future. ADs love to see you can work consistently on different pieces across one project, since that is basically their entire job: create a consistent art direction.
In terms of the crits from now on, I have decided that I will basically play at being your AD. I will ask you to push things and work on pieces or make decisions that you might not agree with or like. I might even ask you to do a 90 degree turn and explore something in a radically different way. I figure it is good practice for people to also get used to working with feedback that they may not agree with personally. Just remember that I am always thinking about how to get the most out of you to produce the best pieces that you can do. I will also try and be much briefer (5-10 minutes) and not spell everything out, so you might have to infer a lot more. This is also typical of what you would need to deal with. Feel free to ask follow up questions to me directly at any time here, or on facebook/email.
Excited to see the submissions roll in, the close-off time will be a bit later than 9pm, since I will be out to dinner and don't have the automated thing activated this time.
