My Stalking Abilities Have Been Challenged!

I was in the Artfire forums the other day and came across a post about Blockhead Radio and its "stalker challenge". It seems that they are searching for the biggest, baddest stalker they can find, as they wish to award said stalker some fabulous free prize.

Well, hello!

This is a contest made for me! Not only am I a nosy ninja stalker already, but i love fabulous free prizes! I simply must win this contest!

I signed up with them the other day, and I'm pretty impressed with the small bit I've seen thus far. To show my love, I've added Blockhead Radio's blog to my blogroll, set up scheduled tweets to help promote them, and plurked about them as well! I even did the "extra credit" step of adding Chris Huff to my blogroll!)

I plan to add widgets to this blog and my other one, and I am trying to find them on the various social sites so I can follow/friend them!

They've suggested extreme measures, such as strapping oneself to a telephone post and proclaiming the love, naming stars after them, and getting tattoos with their logo. While I have no objection to permanent ink on my body, or purchasing celestial bodies, I am afraid climbing a phone post is out of the question. (The local authorities have reminded me more than once that they do not find ninjas scaling public property amusing...)

My question is this: what do you propose this ninja do in order to prove her "commitment to sparkle motion"? I have a few ideas in mind, but before I let you in on them I'd like to hear what you suggest!

I look forward to hearing all your creative ideas! And remember, no idea is too far-fetched for this ninja!

Thinking about branching out...

Well, so far I have been having slow, but steady, success in my various shops. I started out over on Etsy, and have since opened studios on both Artfire and Shophandmade. My Artfire studio is by far my favorite, because I just LOVE the community over there. I've made great friends and awesome connections, and I've only been there just about a month now. But I just can't say enough good things about the vibe at Artfire. If you aren't an Artfire Artisan yet, you really should check it out. I am sure you will be pleased with what you find.

But anyway... this post was supposed to be about branching out LOL

I am contemplating opening another Artfire studio that has NON jewelry items in it. I am a little nervous about this, as I don't quite know how well my items would be received, but I think that since it's free to have a small shop, it can't hurt to try, right?

If I do open that shop, I will use it to list handpainted goods. I love to paint on odd surfaces, rather than canvas or paper, and I often find myself painting on things like reclaimed windows, wine glasses, or coffee mugs. I also like to paint wood things like birdhouses or trinket boxes.

So, any advice? Anyone reading already a painter that sells on the internet? Any suggestions you want to give me to help me out? Anything you guys would like to see painted? Any help at all? LOL

I'd love to hear what you guys have to say...
