To everyone who’s sent in their image – both the commissioned ones who we’ve contacted directly and the open submission work – we’d like to send out our thanks. Everyone has pulled out an interesting visual angle, we’ve received some incredibly crafted and clever work, and we wouldn’t hesitate to say that Memories is going to be one of the most inspiring illustration books of the century. All the more so because of the subject matter, the way our illustrators have tackled it, and the fact that it will make a big difference to our charity beneficiary, Maggie’s Cancer Care Centres.

To everyone whose image we’re still waiting for… well, the clock is ticking. We don’t mean this in a nasty way or anything like that, we know you’re busy pros, but if you can’t get it in to us by 3rd September then unfortunately we’re going to have to drop you from the line-up and that would be a darned shame. So, for both commissioned work and for open submissions, please hit us with your image by 3rd September 2010.

So, signing off, we’d just like to say that the Memories plan is coming together. Watch this space…

all the best
Antony, Rishi, Stu, Charlotte & Garrick @MemoriesBook
