An official Star Wars author has just retweeted some of my SW pieces, tagging all sorts of official Lucasfilm people, telling them to get me to illustrate a Star Wars storybook O_____O
Heeeeeeelp!!

George Lucas was snapped in Adelaide today, so if I run into him I'll put in a good word :). Not sure if Disney listens to him though, but fingers crossed!

2016-03-15 13:46:22 +0000 UTCCrossing fingers! Would be well-deserved.

2016-03-15 04:32:46 +0000 UTCFingers are crossed for you! This is some exciting news, and a well-deserved spotlight on your work! I very much hope you are hired soon!

2016-03-14 22:40:45 +0000 UTCThe Tolkien Society fully embraces me, and is one of my greatest supporters :) It's the Estate that's taking a very held-back stance.

2016-03-13 09:08:03 +0000 UTCThe "official" Tolkien Society is crazy not to embrace your art with huge enthusiasm. You'd be a great illustrator of all Tolkien's Middle-earth books. Lucasfilm will be certifiably insane if they don't hire you! I've seen some other good SW art, but yours is the most original and of such great quality! Hoping and praying that you get the best possible news soon.

2016-03-13 06:48:04 +0000 UTCMe too. The Tolkien franchise is very divided - there's a huge unofficial following that has always very much embraced me, and a small official side, which snubs almost everyone. So it's pretty all right. :)

2016-03-12 19:11:26 +0000 UTCI am so happy and excited for you! Aside from the Tolkien Society (Woot! Eärendil the Mariner), I think you've been Tolkien snubbed a little bit (at least with the films), so I am hoping for the best with the Star Wars franchise.

2016-03-12 07:22:06 +0000 UTCIt wasn't until I found Jenny's work, I was finally able to keep all those sons of that Fëanor apart...sheeh, why did he have to have seven of them? j/k

2016-03-11 22:46:30 +0000 UTCOh, I can so understand you feeling 'help' about this. Fingers crossed here and let's hope if you hear anything from them, it will be a job offer!
Corine Hefting
2016-03-11 22:44:22 +0000 UTCI already have all your art in my head when I read things like Tolkien and now Roman history so if you were able to do this as well, it would be amazing!

2016-03-11 21:54:15 +0000 UTCAs much as I cross my fingers for you I would have preferred someone from the Tolkien family to twitter that you should illustrate the Silmarillion. :D
