Title: A Dream
Post by: Allinall on March 30, 2004, 04:06:48 PM
I have a simple request.  My brother-in-law and I are planning on submitting a new comic idea to several syndications sometime this week.  This has been a dream of mine all of my life, and one he and I have worked on for the past year.  There's potential for this being our employment in the years to come if it all pans out.  Please pray that this will actually pan out!  

Thanks!

O great God... sift this thing and be certain it is of You. Having done that Lord, bless those in this venture with the gifts and blessings nessessary for positive growth. Draw them all closer to You as You guide them thru all things. In Christ Jesus, amen

Love too!  It'll be about 2 to 4 months in the delivery!  ;D  Ok.  So I'm being real positive here!  Actually, I'll see if I can't get something scanned in and online here shortly.

Well, we'd sent in 4 submissions to 4 separate syndications, and have received 1 rejection thus far due to "a sluggish market."  Could be that the market is sluggish.  Could be that that's what they tell everyone they reject.  1 down.  3 to go...

Just an update...we're into week 8 in awaiting a reply.  Standard for one syndicate is 4-6 weeks, with a note that the longer it takes to hear from them, the further up their process we're going.  After calling them, we found out we're still being reviewed!   :D  

Another of the syndicates takes up to 3 months to check stuff out and decide so we're still a month away on that one.

Keep prayin' please!  :)

Not so long ago we were so in phase
You and I could never forget the days
But then the fire seemed to flicker
Cold wind came and it carried us away
But we'll get back someday, baby

The dream is still alive
Look here in my eyes
Can you see what I'm feeling?
The dream is still alive
The one of you and I
And my heartache is healing
I couldn't let it die
No I knew it would survive
The dream is still alive

Not so long ago in a purple haze
People dreamed out loud they were not afraid
They stopped the war but not the dying
Some got a little bit lost along the way
But somehow we're here today (And we say..)

The dream is still alive
After all this time
The flame keeps on burning
The dream is still alive
The one of you and I
And my heartache is healing
I couldn't let it die
No I knew it would survive
The dream is, the dream is still alive

Oh yeah..
The dream is still alive
Look here in my eyes
Can you see what I'm feeling
The dream is still alive
The one of you and I
And my heartache is healing
I couldn't let it die
For all the times we tried
The dream is still alive

  ;D

Final update:  We've now been rejected by 3 of the top Syndicators in the nation!  Which means we pretty much stink...

Actually, I think the market's slow, and regardless, what we think might be a seller, they have the knowledge of what would or would not sell.  Oh well.  God's still in control and blessed be His NAME!

On to the next idea... ;D
