    Stopping in for a sec

    To brag a little if I may. An art buyer for a publisher contacted me today and has made a generous offer on some of my work.

    Thanks to you all for your help, encouragement, and inspiration.

    Sounds like Congratulations are in order!

    Be careful of the contract for things particularly like assignment of rights. You should get at least some payment for every usage of any image, retain all rights, and be credited.

    Best wishes

    Thanks folks!

    drg, good advice, I've already read the contract, and received the offer. The next step is waiting for the writers to add their bit, then after I review that, if I approve, it's a done deal, and check will be in the mail. I'm so excited.

    The image is going to be used on a greeting card. If things keep going the way they have been, it won't be long before we can roll into town and have that beer. Best of all, I may be able to leave that $%^#*@ photo lab.

    It has been an exciting time lately, and in all honesty this photo selling was a surprise, as it falls well short of being a great shot. Guess sometimes the content is more important.


    Thanks everyone for the congrats.
