Although it's not a job offer, I have had some nice possibilities popping up for me this week. On the art side of things, I have been asked, along with a number of other artists, to help with the artwork for one of those RPG type books, all about Steampunk. I think it's a kind of steampunk/space opera type story- I haven't received all the details yet, but will hopefully be doing about 10 images for that, all of which I hope to show you on DA. I have been practicing very hard with some new styles and ideas, so I applogise for not posting much recently, but it's all in sketchbooks or on my desk! So long as it doesn't breech any copyright or whatnot, I'll post the pics once they are done. I am very much looking forward to it, and I will hopefully get royalties. Woop!

On the writing side of things, my publisher has asked me if I want to go to The Northern Book Fair and do a signing. They'll set me up with a table and copies of my book, so I can have a chat and generally get some more exposure. Even better, I get a chance to go back to my old University! It's on Aug 16th, so, if anyone's around, please come up to Lancaster and say hi! I have also finished all my editing now and am well into writing my third book, as well as a few others. I am so busy with ideas, sometimes I don't know whether I want to read, write, draw, eat, sleep - it's all one big blur. I still desperately want a job though, and haven't given up looking... in fact I look every day for at least 2 hours, but I can't even get an interview. Oh well, at least with the artwork, it can all go towards my portfolio.

On a completely alternative theme: YAY DIVERSITY - Glad you won Britain's Got Talent.

And that's about it. Will keep you all updated, have a great weekend, enjoy the weather and eat lots of icecream.

Luff and hugs to all!
