Stories don't always end where their authors intended. But there is joy in following them, wherever they take us. ---- Beatrix Potter

Gosh, I like that. They're playing "Miss Potter" on cable this month and I really enjoy that movie because they put you right into her life, how she viewed the world and how she interacted with her characters as she wrote.

It reminds me that I need to get back to my own writing -- but first there's so much that I have to do. Last week was insane because of TAKS testing and this week is likely to be hectic because Ryan has band contest on Thursday and Paul has his band contest on Friday. (Two trumpets practicing two different songs -- I may have to sedate the dogs.) I managed to finish three pictures for the upcoming con season. I'll give myself another week or so for new stuff and then I'll mat like a mad woman.

Is anyone going to A-kon in Dallas? I'll be in the art show so there's a good chance that you'll run into me there.

NOTE FROM THE ARTIST:
PLEASE do not COLOR or MODIFY my art work!! The best way to improve your own art is to practice, practice, PRACTICE! Please don't make MommySpike unhappy by finding her art in places that it doesn't belong!
