ReplyDeleteDeirdra ~ do people need to RSVP or register for this or something?
ReplyDeleteThis sounds like a wonderful function. I hope you get a good turn out. Wish Ohio wasn't so far away.
ReplyDeleteThank you for the award and wonderful comment you left on my A Shade of Whimsy page!!
ReplyDeleteThis sounds like something I would love to participate in but can't - I live in Canada -a bit of a drive!
ReplyDeleteNo need to RSVP. And don't worry, if you can't make it I'm going to post my presentation here later.
ReplyDeleteThat sounds amazing! What a great opportunity!
ReplyDeleteAnd thanks so much for the award!
I really, really enjoyed this. The humor works brilliantly, and the animation is much better than I had imagined. The way you have “blended” (hehe) it all together makes this look like a solid, whole product, as good as any Pixar short. Probably better. But then again: That’s my opinion.
