Logo design

There was general affirmation of the concept above, which was designed by Robin Stewart. The group agreed that we need to have a designer polish and refine it (ideally, quickly enough so that we can incorporate it into the rolodex business cards and brochure we plan to produce and distribute at Northwest Bookfest, November 13-14).

Sherri Schultz, the Guild’s coordinator, said she knew nothing about design, printing, etc., and voiced a fervent wish that Guild-member angels would step forward, take the design, and magically reappear with business cards and brochures in November.

Judith Dern and Judith Calman gamely volunteered to try to help make this happen; if you're interested in helping too (especially if you're a designer or have experience in producing printed materials), please contact info@edsguild.org. The Judiths will be overjoyed.

Sherri will e-mail the Guild’s members to see if there is a designer among us who is willing to help; if not, we’ll consider hiring an outside professional.
