A standard Monday...

First off, many, many, many thanks for the responses to my last post - I had some serious 'duh' moments reading several of them, and many others gave me some great ideas. Much appreciated! You guys are awesome, I hope I wasn't too frustrated sounding. :) Really, you guys rock.

What did you do today?

I built a yurt.

Seriously! It was going to be t-shirt day, but Matt and Jake really needed a third pair of hands at this stage, so I bundled up and went out and held stuff and stuck rafters up and we built a yurt. It's not covered yet (we were running out of daylight), but the frame and door are all in place. It's pretty cool!

So now it's 4 PM, and I'm about to tackle shirts. Long day, but fun! My fingers are still all cold and tingly.

A yurt? Cool. I hope someone took pics!

Yay, YURT!

Hey, would you be interested in a tutorial on inking with a lightbox? Most of my techniques are self-taught and so sloppy that I really don't feel qualified to do a tutorial about them, but this is something I think I'm actually qualified to talk about.

Alas, it was too cold to take the digital camera out with us - I may go out tomorrow and take a few fast shots, though!

Yes! THat would be an awesome topic. :)

Seeing as there are still a few days to get something in for the January issue, I'll see what I can do.

Okay, two questions. No, wait. Three.

1- does this count as a query? (i.e. is my article no longer an unsolicited submission at this point?)

2- where should I send it to?

3- I have eight illustrations; is that too much?

1. Sure, good enough. We're not quite as picky as we sound, probably. :P

2. editor AT emg-zine.com

3. No! More is better! 8 sounds just about perfect!
