I SOOOOOOOO Forgot To Tell You!
I forgot to tell you that not only did I sell my first picture but that one of my images was discovered at Flickr by a Newsletter Editor/Webdesigner for the Kansas City Regional office of the Southern Baptist Church. They asked if they could use my image for free. I said yes after I layed down some ground rules. I didn't want a repeat of the Chior CD Drama to play over again. They agreed. One of the stipulations was that I see a pre-press mock up before giving final permission. As you can see above, she did a lovely job of it.
The newsletter will be printed and distributed to about 5,500 Baptists in an 8 county area, and will be achrived online for their digital readership. They will be sending me unfolded copies that I can use in my portfolio. I have also told her to feel free to browse my images for future issues, and that I would like to form a relationship with her. This will build my portfolio, and whose to know that I didn't get paid for my work?
When I am given the actual link for the finished newsletter, I will of course post it here.

This is like when I "sold" (for no money) my first writing piece... to a magazine for funeral directors. Warmed the cockles of my heart. Congrats!
Hope you had a great Father's Day!
Woo-HOOOO! Woot! Woot!
I'm not sure why they chose that image for that scripture, but it's fantastic - and great visibility for your work!
You DA MAN, man!
