Ego Boost? Please?

"Ready to Fly"

I went out on a limb (har har) and decided to try my hand at a design challenge at Threadless. I'm completely freaked out because putting myself out there for judgment isn't really my norm.

And now I'm like an obsessed maniac watching the votes and getting very emotional over how many votes there are, about the overall score.

What was I thinking?!

So, if you like this design...or even if you only like me...would you very much mind going over to Threadless to vote for me? I'd hugely appreciate your support!

Pretty please?



Necessities

Sometimes, it's just not my turn to be creative.

I have been decidedly absent from creative endeavors (with the exception of one which I shall post about at a later date). It's not from lack of desire or motivation, but I have given over my creative pursuits to those of my students.

My day job is that of a teacher, and one of my classes is creative writing. My students are on the cusp of publishing a collection of horror stories, and it has been my job to compile and edit their work.

That is a task in and of itself! Making sure that every one's name is spelled correctly, that every one's story is edited, that everything is school appropriate...

Yikes!

So, here is a sneak peak of the cover, and then I am off to do the final edit and hopefully get everything posted today.

Phew!
