Doh!
So much for hitting the April 8th deadline :-D Two things conspired against me--I didn't realize that 4:59AM April 8th in my timezone wasn't 4:59AM April 8th in the publisher's timezone. I also, foolishly, cut my fingertip open while slicing bread. My finger bled and bled and once I convinced my husband that a band-aid wasn't going to cut it, he ( Read more... ) -

LOL although I'm old enough that I should be able to produce digital art, I'm just not very good at it and went ( Read more... ) -
I made a sweater!
One of the problems with being a textile artist is that your art tips over into the craft category. I bought a flatbed knitting machine a couple of years ago and finally made a sweater on it. I was so committed to the sweater that I have been avoiding starting anything new. I thought it could be completed over Christmas break and maybe it could ( Read more... ) -
Cover Reveal--Arthropoda!
My adventures in publishing so far have been quite interesting! I saw the call for entries for Arthropoda by Perennial Press in summer 2021.
I was thrilled when it was accepted and it was a pleasure working with JW Stebner of Hexagon to edit the story and add the extra bit of polish.
Then came the waiting...the waiting...and wait no more! Pre- ( Read more... ) -
January Goals
The first seven days of 2023 are in the can and I think they were pretty productive! I worked hard on cleaning my office and organizing everything, started my first sweater on the knitting machine and started sketching some ideas for the year ( Read more... )
