Woohoo- I met my deadline!
See this big box?
Okay, it’s a small pic, but really, the box is a big ‘un!
AND - it is FULL of my life!
Yep…. this is hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of hours of designing, writing, illustrating, frogging and work work working!
This box is full of the projects for my new book.
Here I am , just about to take it to the post office to lob it off to my editor:
Whew…. it cost $50 to mail! sheesh……
Can I tell you anything about the book?
sigh…. no, not yet…..
Let us say that a lot of yarn is involved……
and hundreds and hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of hours of my life….
all in one yummy box…..
(the book will be released next summer - I’ll be able to tell you more in a few months, once my publisher gives me permission)

Thank you so much, Terri!
Jim took a very nice picture! I think it’s a nice picture because that’s the way he sees me.
I am wondering what’s next, too….. I am full of ideas, so it’ll be exciting to see what blossoms….

You look totally gorgeous in that photo, and if anybody wanted a perfect illustration of happy, that’d be the one to use.
You go!

Hi TattingChic
Ooooooooh I am really happy….. getting to this point in a book is always the equivalent of scaling Mount Everest.
And, I’ll definitely be updating my blog as it moves through the next stages. Now, it’s my editor’s turn to heft Everest…. LOL!
