31 Days of Thanks: Day 28
By now you surely know that in addition to my art, I also love working backstage behind the scenes in the theater. When people ask me about my varied art and theater careers and which I enjoy more I often explain that while I have been an artist for much longer than I have been working backstage in the theater, I am truly passionate about the theater. Thankfully my art has allowed me the opportunity and flexibility to be able to pursue my theater work. However, during this contest I discovered something. As I drove home from a dinner out with friends on July 3rd, the final night of the Final Round (and yes, of course I promoted the contest while I was out at dinner… it was the only way I would allow myself to go out in the first place), I passed some neighbors shooting off fireworks in my neighborhood. I love watching fireworks, so I turned my car around, parked, walked down the street and in the black of the night went up to neighbors I had never met, introduced myself, told them about the contest and asked for their vote. The mother with her children all huddled under an umbrella to shield the falling fireworks embers graciously welcomed me to their fireworks viewing party and said how much she admired my passion, my dedication to my business and my willingness to come up to complete strangers at 10 o’clock at night to promote my art. It was then that I realized how much this contest has brought out my passion for my art. I know deep down it was always there, just not shining in the spotlight as it is today. To my fireworks neighbors, thank...

To all those who discouraged me throughout the years. Who inadvertently made me want it more. Who made me work harder. Who made me stronger. Who made me not willing to settle. Who drove me to never give up. Who led me to achieve the things I have accomplished thus far. Thank you.

To my fabulous friend Celia Triplett of Marketing Mechanics. I asked her what I thought would be a simple question… “How do I attach a blog to my website so it is not www.RandomBlogSite.com/impersonal#95837NoOneWillRemember?” To which she replied, “I suggest you let me completely makeover your website!” With extreme trepidation at such a critical time in the promotion of my business and while my priorities were focused on preparing for my magazine release party and celebratory activities associated with DyeSigns By Pamela, Inc. Month, I cautiously agreed. In less than three weeks Celia helped me create a new logo, completely revamped my website, and did that one little thing I asked in the beginning of attaching a blog to my website. Two words: CELIA ROCKS! I love my new logo. The website looks phenomenal and is a much better representation of my national and international brand I have become. And I got what I wanted… my blog. All that mixed in with some urgent deadlines in order to get everything live in time for DyeSigns By Pamela, Inc. Month and we managed to avoid any down time of my site. I can’t thank you enough,...

To all the people that I do not know, have not and will not have the opportunity to meet, literally from around the world, who voted for me in the contest, took the time to comment on my photo, or stopped me out in public and said, “Hey, you’re that scarf girl!” Yes, that’s me. Thank you for your support!
