As of yet, I’ve never had a space designated solely for the purpose of doing artwork, so find myself salivating over well-appointed, ample spaces when I see them. Don’t get me wrong, though—I’m very grateful to have any space at all and a nice supply of art materials, at that 😀 I’m very fortunate in that respect!
But, when thinking about an ideal space conducive for creating artwork, it would include an ample drafting table, a comfortable chair, suitable lighting (oh, this is SO important!) and adequate space to neatly store the hopefully abundant art supplies. This is where I plan to share my current space, will post about other artists’s spaces and hope to hear all about yours!

I had no idea you l like to play chess. What a reat site that is. I thought maybe I’d find Kid Lit Reviews there but no, I find this fantastic Wonderopolis – is that site cool, and Chess! And Writers helping Writers. Where have you been hiding these places. I know about the others and participate in all but 12×2 (expensive), but you have a great list going there. (just kidding about expecting to see KLR – maybe on a different link.) I can see why you wanted to take so long to get this site prepared. You did good. 😀

Yep, I actually love chess but am NOT a good player! I can’t hold onto the moves I work out unless there are only a small amount of pieces on the board, during the end game. Still—I love it! 🙂 Haven’t played in ages!
And yes, Kid Lit Reviews is definitely going to be on my links list! I only put up a few that came to mind immediately and had to stop as I thought of more purely due to exhaustion. Those were the last pages I tackled before launching both blogs. I went 2 nights without sleep pushing to launch no later than Tuesday ’cause originally I was going to post the Q&A with the Reynolds brothers on Friday. That’s changed and now what’s exciting is I’ll have the Q&A with Terry Shay! I’m just as happy my Q&A with him is going to be my christening post on BOTH blogs to celebrate Dot Day 😀 😀 😀

Wait. You. Mean. To. Tell. Me. That., Oh, no, you didn’t. You. Mean. KidLit Reviews. Did. Not. Come. to. Mind. Immediately.. (Boy, that is a hard way to write. Hurts the period finger tip). Well, I am offended. So offended that I might just spam your entire site. So there. plfssssss (sticking my tongue out and make that plfssss noise).
I can imagine, with all the places you go to, trying to choose what to put up at first, without offending anyone, was probably hard. Actually, you choose some good sites that most of us go to. And those sites have special programs, so you did good, BUT . . . 😀 A toast to you: > – I

Turn on Markups in your setting for I think in discussion. That is supposed to be a martini glass to toast you.

You know, I tried to understand what markups were and considered turning it on, but got nervous I’d screw something up. Since you’re telling me I can/should, I know I can trust it 🙂 Thank you, Sue!

You’re right! I got to SO many sites and tried to put up a few that would go under each heading. I don’t want to rush descriptions, that’s for sure! And now I have to try to actually do the post for tomorrow before my eyes close uncontrollably. After all, it IS Dot Day and I want to do my special guest some justice 😀
