Last night was fun! Matt and I went to the University of
Washington bookstore for a book signing of “Seven Wild Sisters” written by
Charles de Lint and illustrated by Charles Vess. What a delightful
presentation. Not only did we get to hear a selection from the book, but
Charles (de Lint) and his wife, MaryAnn Harris played a few songs for us, while
Charles (Vess) did a sketch. As always, Charles de Lint was great-hearted about
signing mounds of books that people brought from home.

I had met Charles de Lint before, but never Charles Vess. As far as I'm concerned Charles Vess
is one of the top fantasy illustrators we have right now. While chatting with Mr. Vess, I discovered
that he will be giving a professional illustration workshop in Washington
this weekend and I was able to snag the very last spot!!! Wow!!!

This is bound to be a mighty exciting weekend and I just can’t
wait. I’ll be blogging about my experiences so stay tuned, I'm certain the workshop will be a lot of fun!
