DECEMBER GIG’ing
The start of a new blog. There have been false starts plenty. Even thoughts that nobody reads the blogs that people write simply because nobody has the time. –I know I don’t. — But here I start a new blog. Maybe one that will help me write my book. A book about GIG’ing
GIG’ing is what i do for a living. I am a caricature artist. One of humanity’s many superfluous professions along the line of tumbleweed entrepreneuer (she exsts!) and radio talk show host.
December is a huge GIG’ing month because people throw all sorts of parties and soirees that call for people like me to entertain. I’m lumped in there with tarot card readers, psychics, magicians, balloon guys, the bouncers, clowns, and the guy they hire to play SANTA. That’s my profession. That’s my job. And December is one of the months throughout the years where I learn more about human nature and how it plays against my independent business owner experience.
If you GIG for a living, we have a lot to share. A lot to talk about. A lot to teach each other and a lot to bitch about.
This will be a blog where I say things as I see them. — YES, I will fall into the mud with the swine I complain about. But I do it so you won’t have to.
ONWARD!
