Blown up for (semi)legibility. And... hm... I've lost track of the count.... And, oh yeah: I work at a place called the CBC. Which I absolutely must quit. Even if it means breaking up the League of Superheroine-ism.
If you finish your color portfolio and we get you a gig with greenwillow not only can you quit your job BUT upon publication of your first book I promise to Jeannie out my hair...even if it means extensions.
I swear CBC life would be SO much better if Steve could work there, too. *sigh*
Yes, I'd last much longer at a crummy job if there were a Steve bouncing in for head-skritching every now and then, and for doggie-walking breaks. Even a cat who occasionally draped itself across the invoices would be welcome.
Now I have some major incentive for finishing the portfolio. Because my secret goal is to make all my friends Jeannie out their hair. I'd even let you be evil twin Jeannie if you want. She always had those groovy earrings.
Shhhhh, you didn't hear anything here. Actually, there's nothing to hear. I just need to show someone my portfolio of colour art, which doesn't exist because I sell or give away all my colour art. Or paint it on walls, which I then neglect to bring with me.
In other news, an editor at one of the smaller children's book publishers wants to look at one of my mss., so please send out general vibes that she doesn't find it utterly boring. I mean, that she finds it bubbly and publishable. I need to work on my "positive outlook."
In other other news, I dreamt all night I was trying to get to Hawaii by bus, but I was barefoot and couldn't find a pair of flipflops I could afford. What does it all mean??!!
I am sending lotso positive mojo in the direction of said children's book editor.
My nice friend Athenia who I'm too lazy to do a LJ link to at the moment complained that there were too many traumatic children's books and I offered to write one about Shadow-san along with live piccy's to illustrate because he really is very expressive.
She said the idea was "gold." But the poor dear is young and impressionable. LOL. But if I can prostitute my German Shepherd to the children's book industry and live easy... hey, I'm all for it.

P.S. - It's hard to draw a tiny skeletal moa.

~M,
who should probably get a LJ just to have an identity, even if she doesn't post in it
