TAHINI?

Have you ever gone to the grocery store in search of just ONE item, but you quickly discover that the grocers have moved it to a different location.  And, even when you ask a cashier, butcher or produce manager, no one can seem to tell you where it is or why it was moved.  Me too.  Recently I looked for tahini for 20 minutes.  I eventually found it near the pickles.  Go figure.  Well, this public service announcement is no different…

You have been asking and asking, “I follow you on Facebook; so why don’t I see your posts?”   We share your frustration, but instead of climbing on into the choir loft and joining all of the voices singing the Facebook woes, let’s just try to fix the problem.  Here’s an infographic… (post continues below)

I am not a good house keeper.  We must own our faults, and this fact is one of my many faults.  I don’t qualify for Hoarding or Clean House, but I also don’t dust unless my kid sneezes.  There are always 4 loads of laundry that need to be done, and I am fairly certain there is a can of coconut milk in my cabinet that expired in 2006. 

Life is too short.

 

However, I cannot afford to be a bad blog house keeper.  All of you deserve better than dusty pages and rotten Calls.  There are too many of you whose trust I have earned over the past year and a half to let things fall through the cracks.

So, I am counting on you to resist the urge to move on to checking other email or goofing off on facebook and help me out folks.  We really need to work on cleaning up a few things that are left lingering about even after the New Year:

REJECTION LETTERS:  I had hoped that the Rejection page would be in full swing by January, but I still don’t have enough letters to start properly.  Please email your rejections letters and/or emails to me at submitart@artandartdeadlines.com

I prefer scans of printed letters, but those are rare.  Remember, sending a rejection letter qualifies you for free entry into the $2 Art Contest.

www.ArtAndArtDeadlines.com loves Art Galleries!GALLERIES:  A note to all of the gallery directors that read this blog… If your gallery is mentioned in one of the rejection letters I receive, you will get a feature page on your gallery on this site. 

I always want to be fair, and this is my way of balancing the discouraging with the hopeful. I will take the gallery information from the gallery’s website as well as request input fromt he director.  I hope this encourages you to encourage your artists to send in their letters.  It is your opportunity to let artists know what you want.
