With the principal writing and layout in the books (ha!) the focus now is the arduous but essential task of creating the 220 (and counting) page book's index listing all the names and organizations mentioned. Then comes designing the front and back covers. I'd like to have a jacket with this book, my fifth. That will depend on the cost.
Here is my manuscript's first page showing the title, "The Churchyards of Charleston: Stories From the Underground."
What I'm doing is documenting in words and photographs Charleston's rich history as seen through the prism of its many old and beautiful churches and their graveyards.
On the peninsula there are 13 churches with churchyards (or graveyards) next to them and one Jewish synagogue with its cemetery several blocks away, per the Hebrew custom that spiritual leaders should not walk among the dead.
