Time Machine?

Okay, so seriously I spent the whole day under the delusion that it was Tuesday.  Where the heck did my week go???  I have been piled under an unending stream of bead orders.  Which is fabulous.  I'm trying my hardest to keep up.  In the spare minutes of the day I've been sketching and working on illustrations.  Yes, believe it or not I am still illustrating.  Although by my blog lately you wouldn't know it. 

Have you seen this book: An Egg is Quiet written by Dianna Aston & illustrated by Sylvia Long?  What a beautiful book.  The illustrations are breath-taking.  Who knew eggs were so sublime?  Dianna spoke at our SCBWI meeting this weekend.  She told us to write about the things that haunt us, those memories or thoughts that are always with us.  I love that idea. 

And how is the SCBWI stuff going you may ask?  Well I have to say that I love being RA.  It's a good amount of work, but fun and everyone here is so supportive.  Here is our blog/newsletter if you haven't had a chance to see it.  I'm looking forward to the national conference next month!

Note to self: spend some time dreaming today, even if it's only for 10 minutes.
