A record of the progress of an Amercan artist trying to rebuild her practise in Norfolk, UK, an area of the UK with the reputation of being insular, pedestrian, and parochial. It hasn't been easy.
I will now have something to show for this, whatever happens. I want to do several more repeats, so I can treat them different ways, and I'd like to keep one just the way it looked when it was woven. It takes about two good mornings and a little more for each 288 shed repeat of the fiber sequence. I should be able to do three more before Dec 9, more if i have the opportunity to quit my part time job, which I swear I will. I WILL!

I'm one of those people that temp agencies, and ordinary employment interviewers, don't know what the heck to do with. I have a Ph.D. in biochemistry, which is still an interest, but I don't want to do the kind of work I did in that area ever again. Besides, I left it 15 years ago. I then worked in publishing as a production editor, and then freelance copy edited and proofread. But that was by hand, in the US (while I now live in England), and I don't yet know Quark. Then I got a degree in textile design and worked for a fashion company. None of these skills are apparently of any use in finding work in Norwich, UK, at the age of 57, so I'm working a very boring office job three days a week. Have a suggestion? Please speak up.
