Yep, I did it!
I agreed to be the Newsletter Editor for ISABA.
I know I know, I just took a bunch off my plate why put this on? It took me a few days to figure that out also.
So here is what I have come up with... Stick with me...
What a wonderful platform that is not being used to its fullest potential. I have read through their website and there is some fantastically talented AB Artists.
They just need someone to shout it from the roof tops. What better candidate for the job than me!
I hope that my enthusiasm is contagious.
The gig that I had at the Public Library was from an inquiry made to ISABA.
I started an altered dictionary for my parents. I called it a dedicationary.
