<p class="intro">I have been working on this for the last several hours looking forward to posting to <a href="http://illustrationfriday.com">illustrationfriday.com</a> for the word “double”. Apparently last week went faster than expected and so here is a new but late unbook. Click the image to enlarge.</p>
<h4>Introducing</h4>
<p><em>Siamese Socks: A Double Knit Twins Mystery.</em> The knitting in this image is completely artificial. It is created with digital knits and purls in Photoshop. No sheep suffered humiliation or overexposure in the production of this image. In fact no trees have been used in the production of this artificial cover for an artificial story. So enjoy and double your artificially flavored fun.</p>
<h4>Disclaimer</h4>
<p>UnBooks are fake book covers based on the word from <a href="http://illustrationfriday.com">illustrationfriday.com</a>. They will never be at a store near you. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I received a nice rejection from a literary agent this morning. I am disappointed but I guess that it is one rejection closer to getting an agent or selling the next book. I have about five books going right now with one that I am attached to.</p>
<p>There are moments where the story moves forward and I am convinced that this is it. But sometimes the advancements are dead end roads that lead the story away from its core idea and it becomes necessary to back up. I was hopeful that this last version was the right balance. Back to the drawing board.</p>
