Finally, FINALLY! The craft book I’ve been writing is far enough along to send to publishers. But I still don’t have a name.
Here’s the pitch: A craft book where every project is not only so outrageously cool that a teenage girl would want to make it on her own, but that they also happen to satisfy personal progress requirements.
The book is divided into each value, and then each value has five projects that go along with the personal progress program. There’s also a bonus chapter with five projects that represent all of the values together – perfect for New Beginnings or YW in Excellence. I worked to represent all crafting mediums – sewing, embroidery, paper craft, clay, painting, etc. It’s pretty much all in there at least once.
I want it young, trendy, riotgrrl, craftster kind of thing. For a teen audience without talking down to a teen audience.
I’m am totally absolutely and completely stumped. Please help! Please pass me along to any creative person you know! Please call in the troops and send reinforcements! This is the last thing I have to do before I send it off and say my prayers. Send out the word and leave me your ideas. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE!! (Can you tell I’m desperate and kind of at my wits end with this?) PLEASE!
