The Printer's Proofs Arrive for Maybe A Whale!

I received the printer's proofs for 'Maybe A Whale' so I can take a look at the printed art! The book printer sends a smattering of pages to the publisher and myself, letting us check on the colors and such in a hands-on version. (Which can look much different than the on-screen version!)

This is a large roll of paper with a few of the pages printed on it in a coated and un-coated version. They try to choose pages that have a variety of contrasts and colors.

I even got out my camping lantern to take a closer look 😝. Can't wait to see this in print!
