4/13 download indesign, start thoroughly exploring the tool, watch a couple more tutorials on it to learn basic skills

4/15 have started gathering pictures and information i definitely want to include in my story and starting to twist them around to create my own so that i have a small mock up

4/17 work on story more, start creating a rough physical layout for my story

4/18-19 work on developing story more

4/20 sign up for presentations, work more on the layout and figure out what stories will need more attention than others, more room, etc

4/22 have almost finished rough copy for peer feedback
