This is such a fun time of year because everyone is so inspired about pursuing their dreams with gusto! It's infectious. With that in mind, I thought I'd post a recommendation if there is anyone visiting that is interested in freelance illustration.
Holly DeWolf's, Breaking Into Freelance Illustration is chock full of valuable info and encouragement. Definitely a book to add to your arsenal. Holly did a fabulous job of covering all the bases and it was so fun to see interviews in there with fellow illustrator buddies Kathy Weller, Jannie Ho, Holli Conger and Susan Mitchell. I also had the privilege of being one of the contributors which was a lot of fun- thanks Holly!
Anyway, get this book, you won't be disappointed. =o)
Hi Roz!
Go ahead and hop in my bag when I head off to Scotland and Ireland - we could use a guide! LOL We've never been there. I do remember seeing the gorgeous photo of your wedding in Edinburgh. I am settling in here in MO, though, it's been taking some getting used to. We're just in such a small town now. BIG change from Vegas! Have to travel about an hour away to Jefferson City to find all the stores we miss from Vegas. But I'm loving all the deer and my daughter is LOVING the snow days! School was canceled Monday due to snow, they were sent home two hours early yesterday, and now today and tomorrow have been canceled!
While I'm here - THANK YOU! - for posting the info about this book. I'm very interested in breaking into freelance illustration, so I'll be checking it out!
Wishing you all the best!
