> 
> As a perpetual subscriber to Better Homes and
> Garden's annual "Santa 
> Collection"  (hardbound edition, not the magazine), 
> I received it in 
> yesterday's mail and was pleased to see how well
> they presented our own 
> "Santa Carving Lady", Teri Embrey.
> 
> They did her proud as well she deserves to be
> presented to the public.

> Congratulations, Teri and I wish you much success as

> Thanks, Don.   I was amazed when I saw the book, too
> - remember how
> scary the interview/photoshoot was?   (Or rather,
> how scary *I* was)
> They took all my slobbery gobbledygook and turned it
> into something
> pretty lovely.   What an amazing honor to have been
> chosen for inclusion
> - every article, every artist and collector are
> really something else.
> And, of course, how lucky am I that "a guy in
> Nashville told us about
> you" - thank you again, Don.
>  
> I do have copies of the book available through my
> website, and now that
> its being distributed to all their "subscription"
> collectors, I'm
> beginning to hear from people from all over.    The
> greatest reward I
> can receive as an artist is to know that what I do
> here in my little
> Seattle cave is somehow reaching into people's
> lives; that they take the
> time to stop and share with me what my guys mean to
> them...the memories
> invoked, the gentle feelings they share with
> me....with ME!   Yippety
> skippety - who could ask for more?
>  
> Sorry I haven't been around much lately - seems I've
> had less and less
> "computer time", working alot, devouring alot of
> books and music.   All
> bring inspiration, and oh how easy it is to drift
> through hours
> (sometimes days) at a time, carving, humming,
> painting, and thinking.
> Well, and then there are those times when I just
> have to get out my air
> guitar and play along with the likes of Dave
> Matthews, Ani DiFranco or
> Laura Love.   :-)
