Here is my logo idea for your contest. I updated the hand writing logo that you referenced, and switched it to a fountain pen. Not having the hand floating there makes the whole thing feel more cohesive as an entire logo. I hope you like it as much as I do!
Please do not hesitate to request revisions, as I will be happy to oblige. Thanks for looking.
No problem. Here is a revised version, per your requests. Let me know if there is anything else you would like to see adjusted, and I will be happy to provide.
