Thats pretty much how I describe my continual trysts with synchronicity.

So I get on facebook and I “friend” a lady named Bianca Barnett,
a perky horror actress that I found via another “friend”, Debbie Rochon.

Well, long story short, I see where she has a contest to help her find her ideal role.

No rules, just be creative.  Right up my alley!  But oh snap, the contest ends at midnight that day!
Again, right up my alley!

So I work up a quick design of a movie poster, very rough, then write a short little snippet of a story to go with it.
Well, guess who won?

Yep, that little poster did the trick.  I won some cool stuff from her, and a coupon over at Horror Movie Empire.

I used the coupon to enter a prize drawing and wound up winning a 10 dvd boxed set of horror flicks!
Even cooler, I got to talking to Demetrios, who runs the site, and found we had alot in common,  and when I mentioned I did graphics and web work, one thing leads to a couple of others and now I find myself coming up with new designs for both www.horrormovieempire.com AND www.biancabarnett.com.

I gotta say, this is like a total breath of fresh air.  Then new year was just totally sucking for both me and Lewaine.  Not on an interpersonal level between us, but that we had alot of negative people in our lives that we just sucking the life out of us.
Too many relationships that were “scratch my back and I’ll scratch yours” and we were the only ones scratching.

Lewaine has gotten her modelling consulting and photography picking up steam,  and with both Demetrios and Bianca bringing positive energy AND tangible goods and services to the table in exchange for my design skills, I am feeling really good about how things are starting to turn around.

I guess it goes to show that if you just knuckle down during tough times, and keep the people that matter close, you can weather just about any storm…

*by friend, I mean someone that looks like they are pretty cool, but I have never met and they have zero idea who I am…
