AAN Winner
So this week I found out that I am a finalist won 2nd Place for the Association of Alternative Newsweeklies 2010 Competition in the “Cover Design – Circulation Under 50,000″ category. This is a really exciting accomplishment because pretty much every alternative weekly in the country enters this contest each year, so to be in the top 4 is a pretty big achievement in itself. Especially considering that I was choosing 3 of my best covers from 3 months worth of work (I started here at MauiTime in August and didn’t have the redesign in place until October), when most weeklies have a full years worth of work to choose from. Additionally, this will be the first time MauiTime has ever placed won in the AAN awards—a goal I made to the company upon being hired.
