They could make the cards and exchange them even.Sandy Longhornhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04735445958970512617noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3311201101178073119.post-74530548459143323152011-01-31T12:25:43.833-06:002011-01-31T12:25:43.833-06:00Hi Sandy,

Right now time is what I am lacking, not inspiration, but I know how fleeting this luxury can be. ;-) <br /><br />Also thinking creating cards might be an interesting exercise for my high school students. <br /><br />Thank you for the inspiration! ;-)jessicahttp://www.vinegarandvanilla.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3311201101178073119.post-27290651614353183912011-01-30T13:53:56.210-06:002011-01-30T13:53:56.210-06:00Kristin, great question.

I realize that the images are not yours to sell, but as I was happily collaging a few weeks ago, I did wonder whether or not there was a way to make some money (it's an unattractive quality that I have, always looking for a way for the art to pay for itself).<br /><br />If no one else wants the cards, I'd be happy to give them a good home. I could send you photos of the collages I'm making in return.<br /><br />It's an interesting question, whether or not someone else's image collections will speak to us. Maybe we could take notes and turn the whole experiment into a presentation--perhaps at a future AWP? <br /><br />Just a thought . . . no pressure, of course.Kristin Berkey-Abbotthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16841824206762029363noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3311201101178073119.post-61404143156965961962011-01-29T10:04:47.315-06:002011-01-29T10:04:47.315-06:00Kathleen, as ever, thanks for the support!Kathleen, as ever, thanks for the support!Sandy Longhornhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04735445958970512617noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3311201101178073119.post-43460336677907878542011-01-29T10:04:03.332-06:002011-01-29T10:04:03.332-06:00Karen, thanks for asking.

If you don't have a Kindle, there are free applications so you can read it on your computer. Here are the free apps: <br />http://www.amazon.com/gp/kindle/kcp<br />The anthology can be purchased here:<br />http://linebreak.org/two-weeks/<br /><br />The drowned girl and the girl in the snow are out for consideration now, so fingers crossed.<br /><br />The last two are too new and still need some revising.<br /><br />I'll keep you posted!Sandy Longhornhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04735445958970512617noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3311201101178073119.post-9291814443900504762011-01-29T06:42:44.222-06:002011-01-29T06:42:44.222-06:00I just love this process account, and seeing bits ...I just love this process account, and seeing bits of the results!
