It's kind of necessary to do an audition.<br /><br />I know better than many how the freelance market has been degraded by spec work, but I'm inclined to let this be - People can decide for themselves if they want to participate. <br /><br />If I had any artistic talent (I'm a writer, alas), I'd be all over this as a fabulous opportunity - can you imagine being known as the illustrator for STM?<br /><br />I'm encouraging my sister (a brilliant illustrator) to throw her hat in the ring.Grace Alexanderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05231033372024472872noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3117168333067506122.post-13885130033936049882011-02-22T14:53:43.195+00:002011-02-22T14:53:43.195+00:00Simon- If you read the page carefully, you'll...Simon- If you read the page carefully, you'll se that I have let people know that they are welcome to submit past work instead.Karen Slavick-Lennardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01369065785609752479noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3117168333067506122.post-79666070188841662832011-02-22T13:41:28.179+00:002011-02-22T13:41:28.179+00:00I'm a little disappointed to see you guys soli...I'm a little disappointed to see you guys soliciting spec work.<br /><br />http://www.no-spec.com/what-is-spec/Simon.noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3117168333067506122.post-76656843814505741312011-02-22T12:33:06.074+00:002011-02-22T12:33:06.074+00:00Ooh are you guys gonna release a book?!
