The Nicest Letter I’ve Ever Received



From designer Adam Grano:

I've got a couple bits of news you might enjoy... Firstly, I got the SMURFS gig! HUGE thanks to you for re-posting my flog entry -- that's where Jim Salicrup of Papercutz saw my plea. The first cover is attached here and will be available soon (in both soft and hardcover).

Secondly, as of this past Sunday I am engaged to my lovely girlfriend, Jenny. I had already been squirreling away cash, but the SMURFS job (which I got, again, in large part thanks to you) provided me with the necessary boost of funds to by a ring and pop the question! We're both very excited, as you can imagine. A small pic is attached here -- you can see them larger on my Flickr page.

Thanks again for all the support over the years (I've been doing this almost a decade now, if you can believe it). I think having a more grounded, happy home life is only going to make my design work better.

Now, as generous as Adam's being I obviously can't take any credit for actually doing anything here. Adam put himself out there, and Jim Salicrup was smart enough to take Adam's offer seriously. I'm happy as hell to have been the conduit for their actions, though, and I hope the joy of Adam's note comes through and brightens someone's day the way it brightened mine. Congratulations to the happy couple.
