First off, a big “thank you” to all of you for being patient with me for the last few months while things were slow. Any of you who read my posts regularly knew that I was moving, but things have been crazy this year even beyond then. After the move, there was unpacking. After the unpacking (which still isn’t done) comes gallbladder pain – which was misdiagnosed as acid reflux for the last 3 years, and which kept me lying down most of the day. Then comes one surgery to clear out some gallstones that had gotten stuck in my bile duct, and the recovery. Then comes a second surgery, to take out my gallbladder (I had 53 stones!), and the recovery for that. Lastly, a week and a half ago, my grandmother passed away and I was out of town to help my mother through it and for the memorial. This has been a very busy year. :P

However, with all of that behind me, I think things should begin picking up once again here at Obsidian Dawn. I’ll have Obsidian Dawn CDs available again sometime this week, so for any of you that have been waiting for them, check again soon!

I’d like to start things out with a contest. I’ll be holding these every so often from now on, as long as this one goes well. They will all be based around one or a few of Obsidian Dawn’s resources, where you’ll be asked to submit entries for products and designs that use a particular brush set, pattern, image, etc.
