I got my first rejection letter from a literary agent… and I couldn’t be happier!!!

Because that means I am actively involved in sending my stuff to literary agents. The thing is… and this is a thing you should already know about me… but I am all-art-side-of-the-brain… which means that I can come up with endless ideas of things to write about… children’s books, science fiction, songs, poems, short stories, etc. What I can’t do is market myself.

Between my silly water reflection posts, I am going to do a few posts where I ask for your help. I need advice… feedback… I need help. And if we aren’t helping each other here, what the hell are we doing?

So please, when you see posts that say the word ‘help’ in the title over the next day or two, read the words. We all might learn something from the questions I ask… I just need to figure out exactly what those questions need to be.

While we have been busy watching this dick, the other dicks in Washington have been being real dicks…

While we have been focusing on this dick, the other dicks in Washington have done some really dickish stuff… like limiting the number of species that can put on the endangered species list…

Oh, and allowing coal companies to dump coal waste directly into rivers and streams… or letting mentally unbalanced people buy guns…and lots of other horrible things… so, don’t get so distracted by this dick…

… that you forget about all the other dicks out there.

Even more flowers…

a-1

Just to remind you that there are places on this earth where it never snows…

a-2

Where flowers bloom all through the year…

a-3

And birds are singing in the trees… which are also full of flowers…

a-4

And the world is a riot of colors…

a-5

And delightful smells…

a-6

Where people can come to get away from the snow, and see palm trees and beaches…

a-7

We even have S-shaped clouds… I bet you don’t have those!

a-8

Maybe that’s something you should think about.

Okay, that wraps it up for my latest babysitting adventure with little Olivia. I am still doing the funny water reflection series, but tomorrow, I am going to do a couple posts asking you some important questions, so get a good night’s sleep.

Yes, I am still doing these silly water reflection posts… because they are fun, easy, and look cool… and nobody is begging me to stop. Of course, you aren’t making suggestions of other things to do this to… so… uh… yeah.

Just flowers…

a-1

Yup… this is winter in San Diego.

a-2

Just sayin’…

a-3

These are from my trip to Balboa Park with little Olivia the other day.

a-4

I love taking pictures of flowers. The colors appeal to the artist in me.

a-5

My dad used to take beautiful flower pictures.

a-6

Also, flowers aren’t like birds.

a-7

They don’t move around while you are getting the camera focused.
