They like me, they really like me...
Okay, an email like this makes my day:
Hi Heather!
Ages ago we had been in touch about a project for our ____________(national bead magazine that will rename nameless for now) ... we'd still love to include a project of yours if you're willing :) I've attached a copy of our guidelines for your review! I look forward to hearing from you.
Okay, my procrastination has reached an all time low, I need to get this out the door before the end of the week!!!
I have written articles for BeadStyle Magazine. The above mentioned magazine is a different one though. BeadStyle is a great magazine. The submission process was so simple, I just emailed scans of my design and they said to send in the written article, the finished piece and a kit for them to use for the instructions.
The first article appeared in July 2004 and the second, pictured here, was in the September issue. I sold kits for both designs and the cuff bead kept me busy filling orders for months. I still offer the beads on my site.
I have many more article ideas, I just need to write them down and get them out. Oh why do I need to sleep? hmm, could I get away with an hour or two less a few nights a week. I used to work from 10-2am when my girls were toddlers. And then get up 5 hours later to start the day again. I don't know how I did it! or I could stay off the computer more...gasp!
If the choices are you get up 5 hours earlier or you stay off the computer, I selfishly ask "Sleep?!?!? Who needs it?!" :-P
