Instead of a computer search, I tackled the Writer's Market today. It's an 890 page book that lists all the publishers along with their critical information like what types of books they publish, subjects, where to send queries, submission guidelines, royalties and lots more. It also has articles on finding, managing and promoting written work. I scanned a hundred pages of entries and found just a couple possibilities. It's fairly easy because I go directly to publishers of non-fiction, read their topics and the philosophy of the company. I'll still have to investigate them further, but it's been helpful.
We made a lot of progress on costumes today. The boxes of Joseph costumes yielded many usable pieces. Plus, we cleaned up next to the rigging so that the space is clear of the repair of the beam. Our choreographer has a storehouse of costumes that she contributes when appropriate and the girls tried out a few today. It's going to be a dazzling show!
There must have been twenty kids on site to work today. Half pitched in to build seven new panels and skinned a few more. The others worked with the costume crew labeling garment bags, cleaning out the prop room and backstage, pulling props and hanging costumes.
Me? I wandered around taking photos, visited with Ellen, and generally avoided as many of those tedious tasks as I could. Give me a coat to design and sew, shorten a skirt, build a set, paint a backdrop. PLEASE!
