sot THAT worked really well for her ...didn't it...

a little humble pie is good for the soul...
one of the best bits of advice my dad ever gave me was to swallow my pride...
well I do agree with you that humility is good for the soul.
this also is a noble virtue that i respect.
However, humility should not mean hypocritical, and that is what a lot of designers are becoming,
they become beholden to these people who, for them at least, seem to hold their careers in their hands like a delicate egg.
they have to take great care to constantly appease these people in hopes that they will help them to become successful.
i never want to live like that.
I genuinely Love people and want to show them the utmost respect, but that should not mean i should be afraid of speaking my mind, or at least Tara in this case.
Also, the calendar is still early, there are a lot of people who are just registering, and may be on later calendars. Myself may be included in that group.
the collection is halfway done and i have already secured a space, but i am still not sure if i want to show, ( i have to decide by next week though)
I have developed a two year plan for my business, and i am not quite sure if a show at this point is in its best interest .
either way i will definately show it to you guys though, you have always been very kind to me.............
love always Ms Softgrey
