I'm making good progress on writing out the stories I'd made up for the twins and revising and polishing them. I still haven't found an artist yet to illustrate them. I know if I don't find anyone, the publisher will probably find someone they like for it, but I'd rather ask here first if any one here is either an artist who would like to work on a children's book, or if anyone knows anyone who would like to work on a children's book?

	If you find an artist who needs a turtle to model for illustrations - Rock works for fruit and spinach. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	And here I never knew Rock was a turtle model. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I see what you did there. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	leonineserpant 2021-05-01 01:23 am UTC (link)
	I hoped you would, because it's the only turtle pun I've got. However, I'm sure he absolutely rocks at his job. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Name pun. I like it. Lace wouldn't go along with it as cheaply. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Unless they met her demands. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	What are her demands? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	psychicraptor 2021-05-01 05:49 am UTC (link)
	Chicken. She will work for rotisserie chickens. And sturdy beach balls to play with. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	The girls cannot wait to see 'their' stories in print. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	leonineserpant 2021-04-30 04:41 pm UTC (link)
	I know, and I can't wait to give them the first two copies off the press. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	bithnyianking 2021-04-30 09:49 pm UTC (link)
	I haven't told them you're planning on doing that love. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	leonineserpant 2021-05-01 01:14 am UTC (link)
	Do you think I should let it be a surprise? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	bithnyianking 2021-05-01 01:16 am UTC (link)
	That's up to you. I wasn't sure if you wanted it to be so I haven't mentioned anything. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	leonineserpant 2021-05-01 01:23 am UTC (link)
	I hadn't thought about it before, but. It might not be such a bad idea. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	bithnyianking 2021-05-01 04:05 am UTC (link)
	It would be a good surprise if you want to keep it as one. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	leonineserpant 2021-05-01 04:10 am UTC (link)
	...Alright, I think that's exactly what I'm going to do then. So they're not expecting it when I hand them to them. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	bithnyianking 2021-05-01 05:17 am UTC (link)
	They're going to love it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	leonineserpant 2021-05-01 05:45 am UTC (link)
	I hope so. Should we wrap it up so they don't know what it is at first? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	bithnyianking 2021-05-01 05:47 am UTC (link)
	With bows on the packages? (Reply to this) (Parent)

	I'd offer to help with the illustrations but I doubt you want them to be stick figures. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	leonineserpant 2021-04-30 04:43 pm UTC (link)
	I appreciate that. Everyone has their talents. Yours are medical and acting. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I've started hiring additional Princesses since class and work is taking up more of my time. Oh hell I'm a business owner aren't I? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	leonineserpant 2021-05-01 01:15 am UTC (link)
	You've got employees, Lily. I think by the very definition, you're a small business owner. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	aimed_curse 2021-05-01 01:17 am UTC (link)
	I never wanted to be a business owner. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	There are worse ways to work your way through med school? I mean at least it isn't being yelled at by Karens who can call corporate on you. You are in charge. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	You'd be surprised how many still try though. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Please tell me when they ask to speak to your manager, you go put on a different costume and come back as the manager. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	aimed_curse 2021-05-01 04:39 am UTC (link)
	I hadn't thought of doing that. But now....I think I'm going to have to. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	leonineserpant 2021-05-01 05:11 am UTC (link)
	You need to, you really do. It's an even better answer than "I am the manager". (Reply to this) (Parent)

	My art style probably wouldn't fit but I can ask Hazel to send you some stuff when she gets back from her internship? See if it's what you want for illustrations? (Reply to this) (Thread)

	leonineserpant 2021-04-30 04:44 pm UTC (link)
	That would be great! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	angelsbreath 2021-04-30 09:51 pm UTC (link)
	She should be back in a couple weeks if you don't mind waiting that long? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	leonineserpant 2021-05-01 01:15 am UTC (link)
	I don't mind at all. Thank you for recommending her! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	angelsbreath 2021-05-01 01:18 am UTC (link)
	I'm biased but she's a great artist. And more comfortable with child friendly styles than i am. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	You say that, and I'm sure if there was an opportunity to ever work on the spiritual successor to any of Tim Burton's work, you'd be right there submitting your portfolio. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I'd be in the front of the line. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I'm honestly a little surprised you haven't tried sending him your work already. Or is it just too many other things on your plate right now? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	angelsbreath 2021-05-01 04:54 am UTC (link)
	...How had I never thought of doing that? I mean I do have a lot of projects but I also don't sleep a lot. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
