Working with Mag was like winning the  trifecta at the track or scoring a hat trick in  hockey: she got my book, she cared, and she  knows her business. … Throughout, the  passion and professionalism were unmistakable.

Mag Carson was responsible for the  artistic layout and the photography of my  children’s book GrrrOUCH! Pain is like a  grouchy bear. She also has designed and  produced a variety of GrrrOUCH! promotional materials including a poster board, flyers, and email attachments. She is efficient, effective, and well-organized. Mag captures the essence of the message and showcases it in an engaging, creative, insightful manner.

I want to thank you again for the wonderful  job you did on the cover design for my book  Stubborn. Your use of type and images not  only catches attention and evokes stubborn  persistence, but speaks simultaneously to the unusual mix of ideas and places covered by the book. And I believe the cover played a very important role in generating effective media coverage and reviews of the book.

My first reaction — and of my husband, 17-  year-old daughter, and her friends — is that  WE LOVE IT! I’m going to sleep on it, but I  think it looks amazing. You really capture the  story and the conflict. I love the … drama in  the ice spray and the pick.
