Weekly check in post

Hi BBers, how’s it all going?
Now I don’t know if it’s right to wish your life away, but we’re one sleep closer to all those delicious stories and all that pretty artwork! Anyone struggling with all those final scenes and the endless editing? (me). Anyone not quite ‘feeling’ the artwork yet (also me).
If you need any inspiration, would a sweet little pic by Suzan Lovett help?

Ha - snap! How very cool - I've just posted a Pros fic review of Harlequin Airs at my lj (http://byslantedlight.livejournal.com/624405.html), and I included some of Lovett's gorgeous illustrations! Today is Suzan Lovett Appreciation Day! *g*

I don't remember seeing this one before (though that doesn't mean I haven't) - where it's from? Do you know the source?

Yes, yes, I would say that drawing definitely helps. *g* If not with the BB, for sad drop-outs like me, then for other stories! Gorgeous.

And good luck to all the writers and artists!

Ooooh! That's not a picture I'd seen before! Ta muchly for posting it! :-)

I'm really happy with the way my BB artwork is going and expect to be Font-hunting at the weekend.

Such a gorgeous picture!

Writing like mad this week because the girl child is off being a day camp counselor. I can't write when she is in the house because she sucks my intelligence out of my ears.

Oh yes, it helps. :-)

I have some ideas for my art but I'm not quite satisfied with the results. But I have four more weeks and I think I'll make it.

N'aww. That's really cute, I've never seen that one before.
Err... the story's slogging along and I'm writing like a crazy before family comes over and I have to play the dutiful and totally normal grandchild. :-)

The individual art is done, but I'm still figuring out the whole picture.

Everyone else doing well?

Oh yes,I feel inspired! Thanks a lot for this!

Reading again your fab story and trying to decide which of the many bits I like will be best for the vid. With all the ideas in my head feel a bit like a mad scientist. :-)

Many thanks to the Mods, I now have an artist, and seen some amazing initial illustration ideas I'm really pleased with *g*

Lovely inspiration! Thank you! Story is moving along - although I decided to make a bit of a change to the motives. Lots of re-editing underway!

I've received some wonderful artwork, too.

And I've got some ideas for artwork for my assigned story.

So all in all, things are going well!
