Text Wrap

I was unable to find a post with a similar problem, but I'm having some problems with text wrap. In the screenshot attached, you can see I have the construction text wrapped around my image. I would like to add a text box featuring a description of the picture but I can't figure out how to do so with the text wrap in effect. Any help is greatly appreciated!

Hi Dough

It is point text


Convert it to area text. Text wrap does not work on point text.

There are a couple of ways you could do it.  I would add anchor points to existing text wrap to accommodate the additional text box.

Make another layer in the file on top of the layer with the text wrap. Put your box in there.
