YB - meeting 4

Potential spanner in the works from the meeting, each meeting with interdisciplinary tends to go quite well, but unfortunately has a variety of what seems to be 'guest members' to take part in discussions. Although this can be a good thing, allowing for another opinion, a fresh pair of eyes to direct the development of the book it can also suggest major chances to the publication, work that has been decided and signed off previously and potentially revisiting aspects and taking more time.

We do want to produce something that all parties are happy with, but taking control of the situation was required so we aren't running around in circles. Although changes such as titles and quotes may seem to the client small changes, can have a big effect on the rest of the space allowing for design. When certain parties have agreed/disagreed for aspects and decisions, it gets a little confusing and slightly frustrating with contradictions. Hopefully ideas are under control and we can hopefully resume.

An issue that has occasionally popped up is word count for students agreed at 50 -70 words to allow for enough space, hopefully this won't bring anymore confusion or problems later on.
