    The CommArts Design Award for Anne Twomey for the Cover

    By Jennifer 8. Lee | July 22, 2008

    Fortune Cookie Chronicles is now technically an award-winning book! (Though not because of me.) The cover, done by Anne Twomey, won in the book cover illustration category of the Communication Arts Magazine’s 49th Annual Design Competition.

    Being a word (and not a design) person, I went to suss out what this competition was all about. As it explains

    Ask any creative director which competitions rank as the most influential, and they’ll place Communication Arts at the top of the list. CA’s Award of Excellence is one of the most-coveted in the industry. If chosen, winning places you in the highest ranks of your profession.

    Fortune Cookie Chronicles will be published in their November 2008 Design Annual issue, which is nice. And as Anne said to me in an e-mail, she’s won many design competitions in her time, but this one has eluded her. So yay.
