For
those of you who have been so kind to be tortured fulfilled in
viewing my sketches every day for the past three months, I'd like to thank you. Yes, I blogged every
day since April… I wanted to hold myself accountable to someone so that I would
sketch every day. I’m pretty sure I got it down. So much so, I’ve decided to
illustrate my own children’s book. I'm not sure if I have what it takes, but I'm willing to try. Oh baby. Since blogging daily and drawing
daily takes up a lot of time, the only way I’m going to tackle illustrating a
children’s book is by doing it. Something has to give. I’ll post once a week
just to show you my progress… with drawing. Oh, and I still plan to tackle the
thesaurus and drawing to the words, I’ll just be on a bit of a break from that for a while... I only have some 700+ words to go.
Until
next week, enjoy and wish me luck!
Wishing you TONS of luck, Lynn! You are so talented, though, you won't need it. :)
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad! I don't know if I mentioned it in any of my comments, but I've thought several times you ought to do a picture book.

Best wishes on your project!
ReplyDeleteOh, Lynn....so excited for you! I am anxious to see your children's pictures too. Good for you...just making the decision must feel terrific!
ReplyDeleteDianna beat me to it. You don't need no stinkin' luck. You got something better. You got talent, Lynn...so much, it's oozing out of you.
ReplyDelete(I cannot wait until the next critique night, so we can see some of your illustrations.)
Good luck, Lynn! If you're interested in writing for kids I suggest you check out SCBWI (Society of Children's Book Writers and Illustrators). And visit Cathy C. Hall's website---she writes for kids and always has a lot of great links and info.
ReplyDeleteBest of luck, but I'm with the others. You have better things called talent and persistence and faith.
ReplyDeleteI admire your dedication and perseverance. And I'm going to watch you for inspiration that I do the same!
ReplyDeleteHi Lynn! That's a fantastic plan. You are a woman of many talents, as most creative people are. I don't wish you luck, because you won't need it. I wish you the best of everything!
ReplyDeleteIt's so sweet of all of you to think I do not need luck. I'm going to need more than that as something always tries to get in the way...
