I’m casting my net farther and wider and seeing what will be. Perhaps I will have to say no because of salary or other unexpected undisclosed information. BUT It will give me a greater chance of saying yes to an opportunity that fits my knowledge and education and experience and challenges me at this stage of my life.

I will not give up my aspirations to become a published author/illustrator. But right now, my family needs another salary, and E will be in first grade next year. It is time to cast that net.
