Today we have one of my favorite people on the web, K. Marie Criddle, who will delight us with her awesome illustrated post. I found her blog when I was stalking my potential agency back in the querying days (yes, I confess I'm that person), and I still get excited for each and every hilarious post. Marie is not only an agency-mate now, but a good friend with excellent taste in mythical creatures. And I'm pretty sure that if we grew up in the same place, I would have been in a perpetual state of jealousy over her drawing skillz.
Why do we ever put our soul on paper. Carving it in marble makes more sense. Then when someone trashes it, you can at least hit them with it.
ReplyDeleteHe he, I like!
ReplyDeletehahaha "This doesn't look like Wicked." Great post, and awesome drawing skills.
ReplyDeleteHahaha.
ReplyDeleteDoes anyone else feel weird reading a book written by someone you know? Sometimes I feel uncomfortable looking into other people's souls.
I love the drawings. And the message is spot on!
ReplyDeleteGreat stuff! And true... though I've always found getting it down on paper to be just as good as getting a good response.
ReplyDeleteExcept for plays. When a play is performed, only then does it feel complete to me.
@hopejunkie - I liked that part about Wicked too!
ReplyDeleteVery funny post with a great, positive message. I'm still at work on my first project and whenever something just clicks in the story, I get that 'Hooray' moment where I dance around and cheer.
Love KM's "drawg" as always!
ReplyDeleteThis = amazing! Love it!!!
ReplyDeleteThis was fantastic. :D
ReplyDeleteHow very gifted she is! That is wonderful!
ReplyDeleteNailed it perfectly!
ReplyDeleteDude... This is so awesome! Love it! I know her from twitter, but I had no idea she had these kind of mad skills. :) I must go to her blog! Hilarious!
ReplyDeleteIt's the perfect message at the perfect time. Thanks to the both of you.
ReplyDeletelove the jazz hands
ReplyDeleteArt is about creating then connecting. What a great way to show this!
ReplyDeleteOh that's so funny. And so true. What talent.
ReplyDelete"This is my soul. I put it on paper." So true!
ReplyDeleteThank you guys so much for reading! So glad to be a part of the Happy Writers Society for the amazing company and, on a lesser note, the delicious virtual cupcakes. Much love and thank you thank you again!
ReplyDeleteGreat post. I had to link back to this from my blog.
ReplyDeleteHahaha! I love the baby eating the paper. Just how it goes. Awesome, awesome post.
ReplyDeleteI love this! And a good reminder that writing is like a performing art: sometimes it's fun, but sometimes you've just got to do it, even when it's not.
ReplyDelete(Also, I thought yesterday was Friday and was disappointed for several hours because I didn't know where the HWS post was, haha).
Love this! And the flip flops and the jazz hands.
ReplyDeleteAwesome, as always!! I'm so lucky to be part of her current crit group :).
