Wet Paint

I’ve been busy as all get out lately. Visiting schools, talking to youth groups, finishing the first draft of my upcoming book, and working on new product designs for next year. The WOW greeting card line has been a pretty good success so far, and we’re planning on doubling the line in January. So, I’ve been busy working on 24 new card designs…the creativity never stops…To be honest, I could really use a break. Bill Watterson (the creator of Calvin & Hobbes) used to take lengthy sabbaticals during the year to recharge his batteries. I can’t argue with the guy’s results, but I haven’t figured out how to squeeze such things into my schedule. Maybe a stellar showing in holiday sales will give me a reason to steal away with Kim for a few days. Anybody have a timeshare in Hawaii I could borrow? Actually, a couple days in a motel with cable and pizza delivery would make me pretty happy right about now… But I digress. Here is a look at one of the newest pieces slated to become a card someday soon…the paint is barely even dry on this one.
