I believe in been ones self and portray yourself in your art and if they say no then just move on and come back when the prospect is ready so say yes.

Sell yourself in your art.

I was pleasantly surprised by your prompt response: it reflects your sense of professionalism. Thank you for caring.

No mysteries at all: I don’t maintain a blog. Somehow, life got in the way, and I never could muster up the discipline to blog, period. Artists tend to be a bit whimsical and, like Drew, follow their bliss more often than getting down to the practical realities of mundane existence.

Tell you what, though, I have decided to get started. Enough of the laid-back lifestyle: time to rev up that motor, old boy, else Maria will never forgive you. She’s a strict task-master, that one, but she means well.

I have it all written down–I maintain a “to do” list, you see–and I will get to work on it soon. Otherwise, like Albert Einstein, I have a tendency to be forgetful or absent-minded if I don’t write it down.

And bless your heart, Maria, for all that you have accomplished. I consider myself lucky to have stumbled upon your blog. Your words are touching and your ideas are moving. Your life is like an eternal flame which refuses to be extinguished despite the ferocious winds.
And, despite your critics, you deserve that book deal, so go for it!
