Today’s the second Dragon*Con all-staff meeting. My staff roster is fubarred to hell. I’ve had several staff drop out, several new volunteers sign on, and I have no idea what my numbers look like anymore. Something I need to figure out before the meeting, obviously.
It’ll all work out. How? It’s a mystery.

Got an email from the editor of the Modern Magic anthology. He informed me that they now have the cover art by David Seidman for display:
Isn’t it gorgeous? And what’s even better, the editor and the artist want to put together an art book featuring the art from the anthology with a description of the artistic progress involved with each illustration. They also want to include an excerpt from each story to accompany the illustrations, and are paying $.03/word for it. Sweet!! More money for “Souls of Living Wood.” Happy.

Well, I’m still in and will be at the meeting this afternoon. So go me!
Yay! Looking forward to seeing you in a couple hours!
oooh!
swanky!
really!
I’ll be there in spirit, milady. ^^
I love this cover. My only nitpick would be to pick one or two fonts for the title text and stick with ’em.
And extra money is always a nice bonus 🙂 Looking forward to reading your story!
Yeah, I definitely see your point on the fonts issue. But I’m just so awed by the artwork, I’m willing to overlook minor graphic design boo-boos.
And I’m definitely looking forward to reading your story as well!
doh. knew i was forgetting something yesterday. wanted to go to the meeting to find out if i really do want to volunteer this year…
There’s another staff meeting in July, so you can still attend one and see the chaos which is volunteering for D*C!
ah, nothing like waiting til the last minute….
;o)
I couldn’t attend the staff meeting because I was doing the kid graduating from high school thing. 🙁
Kid graduating much more important than a D*C staff meeting! But if you’re still interested in volunteering, there’s another staff meeting in July. Hope to see you there!
