Everything is going well *phew* . I’ll give more details as the situation progresses. 
Shawn- you’re a sweetie, thank you for your concern.
We’re flying to Texas tomorrow for my sister’s big 25th birthday bash. I promise I will put my nose to the grindstone when we return and draw my little heart out. (enough metaphors for ya?)
Great news! Happy birthday to your sister! Say hi (Howdy) to texas for me. :O)
awesome sketches and website. good luck!

Hi Courtney, I’ll be going to the SCBWI conference in New York too. Hope to meet you there. I’m trying to get together a group of illustrators at 9pm Friday night in the lobby of the Hilton to peek through each other’s portfolios. If you’d like to come, I’d love to see your portfolio! Invite any illustrator friends too.

Continuation of the last comment – we’re actually going to meet in the NY Marketplace Restaurant on the lobby floor of the Hilton at 9pm to view portfolios. Hope to see you!
Come out, come out, wherever you are!
I know you’re super busy getting ready for the conference. Just wanted to send you a good luck note-(miss your company on the blog!) and remind you to take good notes, woman! haha!
I’m super jealous and can’t wait to hear all about it. *hugs!*
Doh! it’s Friday(*smacks head*), you’re already there!
Hope you have a good chuckle when you get back and read this…hee!
Okay, spaz here. I know you’re not in NY…just getting ready. Geez I’m losing it!
It’s okay Dee. You did scare the heck out of me for a few mins though.
I had to go to the SCBWI website and make sure I didn’t mess up the dates!
