Hello there

Figured this may be relevant here, otherwise let me know and I will delete it:

Affinity is having a summer sale.

It is a very affordable program with no subscriptions, that can do all the things most people would ever need for making book and graphic projects. I have been using the "family" since 2019 for all my projects (though, I am not a fan of Affinity Photo, but I have used it).

They all also have a 30-days trial.
