Serene

A group of us grad students got together the other night to talk about starting up a Coalition of the Willing. It is supposed to focus on gathering resources for freelance illustration so that we can officially lean on each other. We would send out samples, represent each other at conferences, pass on good tips, etc. etc. Everyone loved the idea, including me. The only snag is we can't come up with a name that everybody can live with and that has an open URL. There were several options that had majority votes, but one person would have a violent veto. Yep, we have the problem of too many people involved. I say someone, maybe me (but I don't want the responsibility of supreme leadership), should make an executive decision and anybody not in agreeance can just go and make their own society. Anyway, I am already starting to fizzle on the whole thing if we don't do something proactive soon. Repless Abandon is exactly what we want to do with a key difference - they are from Sheridon College and we are from SCAD.

It all reminds me of being in Jr. High and High School and spending hours coming up with great band names but not having the talent or drive enough to pull together any songs. Like the seminal intelligent rock super group - SquareNut! Or hard grinding grrrl punk band Princess Die!

What I am saying is - the ass is on the wrong neck.
