Making a publicity leaflet

What a lot there is to do, preparing for an exhibition. Not least, the publicity. Really you need at least 3 months lead-time, so that you can send info to magazines for their listings. Fortunately now there is the internet and this show is listed on several "what's on" sites.

Even so we're doing flyers to publicise the show locally. Some will go through letter-boxes in the area, others will be left in congenial shops. A nice picture on the front, all the details - and a map! - on the back.

As I'll be showing some of the TravelWriting, one idea is to use it on the flyer. My first attempt was done on the train from Kensal Rise to Gospel Oak, but the pen ran out towards the bottom:Next attempt, a new pen and a slightly bumpier ride -
This is the general idea - but it still needs a lot of work -
