Hello Gang,

I'm back at work.. and thought I would do a little "catch up" here and let ya'll know what's been happening...
In a big sweet nutshell.. Personal trials and family difficulties kept me from working effectively in 2007 - so now that THAT is all over.. It's time to roll up my sleeves and get back to work! Below is a brief rundown of the highlights of the recent past and the near future - check it out if you've got the time. ~ D

I'm participating in Silcon Valley Open Studios in May 2008 - www.svos.org/artist.php
For the past year and a half, my focus has been on jewelry rather than full costumes. I love that I have a sence of almost INSTANT gratification with jewelry.

I'm the 2008 President of SF/BA MECDA - www.sfbamecda.org --- We've already had a great event -- Brought out Morocco of New York - check out the press --- www.gildedserpent.com/art43/h...eb08.htm

Costumer's Notes is cooking again - I've added a blog there and we're going "old school" with .pdf style eZines coming down the pike. The first one will be ready in May. - www.costumersnotes.com

My first YouTube video is now up - so folks eveywhere can see me dance.. whoo-hoo.. -- www.youtube.com/watch
More will follow when my injuries heal.. Stopped teaching while I work on healing my injured feet!

And.. and.. and..

New book coming soon.. It's all hush-hush for now.. but details will soon be revealed..

Back to the drawing board.. for real!
