Between the lines

Today we turn back the hands of time to take a look at this ad I made for Evelyn Wood Reading Dynamics. The woman I worked with, a good friend and mentor, passed on last week. Her memorial service was yesterday.

One of the greatest gifts she gave me was that she believed in me, which made it much easier to believe in myself. Everyone needs someone like that.

Thank you. 

Who would? Evelyn Wood!

Another of the Evelyn Wood ads that was hidden in the garage. Thanks, sweetie!

And, speaking of sequels, my Countdown to Thanksgiving continues:

One Day at a Time is a slice-of-life blog done by my friend from high school, Kristin Klein. She stumbled across my blog one day and became one of my first followers. There’s always something going on with her family! She also has a photography site, Pickled Pepper Photography, which is full of awesome stuff! Check out her sites -- she's prolific!

More Wood!

I'm starting to get suspicious. Every time I clean the garage, I find more of my old cartoons and stuff. I think my wife has a secret supply that she puts out every time she asks me to clean up!

This is another of the Evelyn Wood ads. This one only ran in the BYU paper, The Daily Universe. They always say to match your message to your audience!

I'm starting my Countdown to Thanksgiving; I want to acknowledge folks in the bloggerverse who have inspired me or encouraged me -- or both!

I need to first tip my hat to Newsphotography:Exposed, the site that is run by my buddy, Gary Weber. Each month he covers some aspect of photography from a news photographer’s point of view. He offers tips, resources and many great examples of his work. His blog is one of the reasons I decided to go ahead and post my cartoons online. And he’s included a few of them in his blog, too. Check out his site. I think you'll be glad you did.

But wait! There's more!

The Evelyn Wood ads ran in October, so we included a bit of a Halloween theme into this one.

Wood Evelyn?

For those of you who keep track of such things, this Evelyn Wood ad ran in the newspaper at the University of Utah, the Chronicle. The BYU version used semesters rather than quarters.

And now a word from our sponsor

I knew the lady who had the Eveyln Wood franchise for the Salt Lake and Utah County area. She thought their ads were kind of stodgy. She wanted something a little more fun that might appeal to college and high school students, so she asked me to make some ads.
