chocolatepotSo yesterday I went to see Isn't It Romantic, and at the climax I was thinking, "Oh, this is a lot like what I get out of Sophie Kinsella," which reminded me that the book I just read was I Owe You One by SK! I find her books comforting because (apart from the Shopaholic ones, ironically) they always start with the heroine being picked on and unappreciated by her family, and you know that by the end she'll find her life path and yell at everyone else, and the romance is like a secondary reward to that. The mileage she has gotten out of this one plot is amazing.
Wore Red Velvet this afternoon to get used to it. Like it more the second time!
So I took a break from the pattern redrawing while I pitched to Contingent, and then continued the break because I started creating a pen-and-paper system for a Regency-period social RPG ("Dandies and Dandyzettes"). Lately I've felt rested up, though, and I'm back to redrawing patterns. Contingent turned me down. Ah well. I hope they can get funding to go forward beyond the March issue. I might ask them for advice on what type of fashion history articles would be suitable, going forward, in case they do, because I don't have the knack of coming up with good pitch concepts yet.
