Wonder, Lust & Itchy Feet by Sally Dellow is a poetry collection exploring three themes: wonder, lust, and the desire to explore the world.
Preparing to publish her first collection, our client had negotiated creative control over the book’s layout and cover design with her publisher. With a clear vision for how she wanted her poetry presented, she engaged our team to transform her manuscript into a professionally formatted book, complete with a cover that reflected her creative style.
Working alongside the client, a freelance graphic designer, and the publisher, we helped bring her vision to life.
