Anna's Eternal Sorrow - The collaboration work was published!
Many of you might remember this collaboration work with Lily Munroe , who wrote a marvelous story , inspired by my image Anna’s Eternal Sorrow .
Lily has kindly offered to submit our work (both story and image) to her local newspaper in Australia for publication.
It worked! The Springbrook Voices has accepted to publish the collaboration work in two chapters. The first part was recently published in the March 09 to May 09 edition, and the second part will appear in the next one, in May.
Many thanks to Lily for taking care of everything, and kindly sending me a copy!
This is me below, dressed as Anna, which in fact is my wedding dress (yesssss, it still fits me!), and holding my copy of the newspaper in order to show the published story. Made a composite image out of it.

Thank you Clare! I don’t know if Lily has seen this journal entry yet, but I know that she will eventually read it and she will get your comment then. :-)

Thank you so much George! Yes, the RedBubble power is something very strong and inspiring. There are so many ideas bubbling in my head (Ha! That must be were the name comes from…), that I simply don’t know where to begin. I should start writing them down! :-)

For the three of us, in fact, because my concept would not have been so successful without your talented daughter. She was so good and expressive!
