BALTIMORE — For two decades, Jordan Crane intermittently worked on a graphic novel. He dreamed of the idea in his late 20s, but each time he made progress on it, something interfered and delayed the process. He’d make progress, but then get stuck.
Finally, at long last, the 49-year old author finished the book, “Keeping Two,” last year and 10,000 copies of its first print run were recently shipped from China, readying for a March release and subsequent book tour.
But that date has been pushed back to May — at least. Those physical copies, along with the cargo of nearly 5,000 other shipping containers, still sit on the Ever Forward, the 1,095-foot cargo ship that has sat, stuck, in the Chesapeake Bay for more than a month.
