Get your face in the door at the pub houses.<BR/><BR/>Paul - you have added inspiration now too for the kids books!<BR/><BR/>Cassie - I reckon it'd be a bit previous to set up a nostalgia site for the CAT just yet ;-)<BR/><BR/>Bushy - LOL! Does that mean as a Comp Director YOU ignore introductory letters?! :-D I don't know how I got them to consider me, it was usually an initial phonecall to touch base, send some samples and a cover letter in that licked their proverbial behinds, and then follow that up with a phonecall to pin down an appointment. As I recall that was the way with all those initial approaches. I know some people are funny about being "cold emailed" so I'd be wary of that avenue...<BR/><BR/>Belf - more dino-goodness to come I promise!<BR/><BR/>Brian - Why write a book? Well, ideally, you ARE writing for yourself. If ANY audience like it then groovy, but sometimes some stories are straightforward and kid-oriented. My older fiction stuff is aimed squarely at me and my mates.<BR/><BR/>Glazey - I don't know what's with that fella, it aint the first time Blogger has done that to my artwork. Thanks for the lovely words mister man and as ever the time out to put my stuff together ;-)Jo Blinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03164759684355532490noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23649877.post-76281846144351945312007-03-12T15:30:00.000+00:002007-03-12T15:30:00.000+00:00That top piccy doesn't seem to want to enlarge.It'...That top piccy doesn't seem to want to enlarge.<BR/>It's really cool to see these pics close-up when stitching them together to see the paint textures etc...Andrew Glazebrookhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10561008286443964427noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23649877.post-73882403437235460072007-03-12T14:14:00.000+00:002007-03-12T14:14:00.000+00:00beauty.nice story too.why write a kid's book?write...beauty.<BR/>nice story too.<BR/><BR/>why write a kid's book?<BR/>write a book...and if kid's like it<BR/>great.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23649877.post-38154627323697380592007-03-12T14:03:00.000+00:002007-03-12T14:03:00.000+00:00Can we see more of the dinosaur book mate?
