The Making of An Artist

The Making of An Artist

Hello, people!

I escaped from my mason jar, and I’m ba-ack! And I’m ticked! If Tracy was around, I’d smack her upside the head with my watering can.

Do you want to know why? I’m gonna tell you why.

Today, Tracy is a featured artist over at that talented author and illustrator’s blog—Kathy Temean. But out of the thirty plus masterpieces being showcased, my be-ee-a-u-ti-ful mug shot isn’t on display. The rinky-dink illustration of me on this banner doesn’t count.

Have You Heard of The Dragon’s Loyalty Award?

Have You Heard of The Dragon’s Loyalty Award?

Two weeks ago, up pops an email from Valentina, queen of the erratic blog, who awarded me “The Dragon’s Loyalty Award”. By the way, Valentina can’t decide if she likes her blog name. I do! Anyhoo, to think that in my last post I forget to mention how much I like blog awards. Although, a dragon is not my favorite beast, but the maiden is lovely.

Don’t Waste Your Time Setting Up a Blog!

Don’t Waste Your Time Setting Up a Blog!

I’ve noticed a recurring theme orbiting in blogo-sphere that applies to new writers (I still consider myself a new writer). That is, don’t waste your time setting up a blog. Rather, one should concentrate on learning the ins-and-outs of how to write, and then place fingertips on keyboard or put pen to paper and write a sizzling book.

What is a Doula?

What is a Doula?

Hi, folks! Indy here.

INDY - NOV. 1, 2012

Last week, Mum told you I’d pick one winner to receive a Juju Band and five of Mum’s adorable greeting cards. 

I had so much fun sticking my nose in Pop’s Harley Davidson Motorcycle hat, and then grabbing a scrap of paper with my teeth.

Indy! Tell the truth.

Actually, Mum pleaded and coaxed, but when those papers crinkled I ran and hid under my blankie. My big brother, Patches, covered for me. He reached in with his teeth and pulled out the winner’s name.

And the winner is…LAURA BENNET. Yay! Please click on the word Mum. I know she’s waiting for your address.

Hi, folks. Indy here.

Today, my tail is tucked between my legs. I just learned that Flare, an energetic, reddish-colored golden retriever, disappeared on January 17th. I had to share this sad story with you.

Oh no! What’s My Blog Butterfly Been Up To?

Hello, people!

BUTTERFLY ANGEL - CLIP ART

 

I’m ba-ack! For those of you who are new to Tracy’s blog, I’m Matilda—Tracy’s marvelous marketing maven.

I’m scratching my left antenna. Hmm…where should I start? Aha! At the beginning, of course.

Tracy’s self-conscious about tooting her own horn, so I flapped my wings and flew to the rescue.

Let me draw your attention to Tracy’s sidebar. Yeah, I know, hardly anyone glances in that direction, but puh-leeze humor me.
