I'm reaching the end of my super cool huge project.  I'd LOVE to show you what I've made, but it's obviously not ok for me to do that.  But I can show you this, still:  NEW clip of Awesome.  I get a big kick out of the scene where they're sitting around the table working with MY SKETCHES!!!

In other news...I'm in the News!   Niagara Gazette to be exact.   Not 2 days after arriving home from my trip to see Sasuke, I was contacted by a reporter who had written about my masks a couple years ago when I did a charity auction at a craft show.  For some reason, she just felt like seeing what I was up to.
 
I met with her & I could have just said "the career is going great, I'm very busy, life is good..." & let her take some pictures of the masks & been done with it.
 
Instead the entire story poured out of me.  Her eyes just kept getting bigger & bigger.  Of course, I ended up on the front page...
Naturally, I gave props to Nagano-san.  ^_^ 

Of course I hate the picture.... the pills I was taking made me look like a bloated fish.  Not two days later, after the pills were out of my system, I'd lost over fifteen pounds!  Too late though.  Anyway it's such a cute article and it makes me giggle when I read it.

Mom cried.  ^_^"    I think she's going to frame it & hang it on the wall.

When everything is settled, I'm going to show pictures of EVERYTHING I've just made.  Seriously...it's some of my best work yet, I think.

*hugs*  Love you all!

Hee! Thank you so much! It's so great to get to share good news with you guys...sort of makes up for last year's drama in a Karmic way.

Suh-nap. I *do* hope you're getting complimentary tickets to this and going! STILL SO THRILLED for ya!

And a really random shot in the dark, but what are the chances you have any red venetian cat masks lying around for sale? The halloween party is a go this year and immediately I knew I had to ask. Plus I was a kitsune last year, so this is a perfect excuse for a new mask >_>

If it's a no go, totally understandable since you are clearly drowning in awesome! best...death...ever

Hey y'know what?? I happen to have one cut out already! Gimme a week & I'll have it finished...will that be enough time? When's the party?

From: [identity profile] moko-moko.livejournal.com

Party's not until the 31st, so there be plenty of time (well, between now and your departure overseas :3) Just pass on how you'd like your payment and fo' how much. Something like $65ish? That was a while ago though so lemme know!

Oh baby you better believe it!! I'm heading back on the 19th, opening's on the 25th & YES I will SO be there. I can't imagine what the heck I'm going to wear... O_O"

From: [identity profile] moko-moko.livejournal.com


HAH. Isn't it a nice change for once to have problems like "what am I going to wear to the opening of the Japanese show featuring a slew of my original works??"

*hi-fives* You'll work it out for sure. Take some pics for us!

Told you the light at the end of the tunnel wasn't a train! The picture is really good...they could have asked you to go au natural with just the masks as covering! That would have been interesting.

Congrats - you deserve recognition for your hard work.

Yes! Oh holy monkey I am SO glad because I just finished the last mask...just now! Yay! It turned out awesome by the way (& that's good 'cause I was worried about it).

Whew! Y'know what? I'm totally going to play a farking video game because I CAN! *relaxing*
