And what a journey this has been!

It's Sunday, June 26th, at 3:30 PM, and I am here to announce that I have officially finished illustrating The Story of ABBA 2.0! 

I started this long journey just over a year ago, on May 31st, 2015.  I worked on illustrating and colorizing whenever I could find the time, and my original plan was to finish with all the illustrations in 4-5 months, maybe even 6.  But, school got in the way, I got busy, I lost inspiration once after being told what I was doing was a waste of time, but I never abandoned the project.

And now, I'm finished with the illustrating!  That doesn't mean the book is ready to publish.  I still have lots more to do, but now that this long task of drawing all the illustrations is done, things should start moving along. 

To everyone who has been waiting anxiously for my book to be finished, I just want to thank you all for waiting.  Here's hoping the book will be worth the wait! <3

"Shame on Bjorn???"

So I saw a comment on Instagram today where someone said that Agnetha's song "Shame" from Wrap Your Arms Around Me was directed at Bjorn.  I have a problem with that.  Number one, Agnetha didn't write the lyrics to the song, and I don't think she would've gone to David Clark Allen, the guy who write the lyrics, and said, "I want you to direct this song at Bjorn because I'm angry at him."  That just doesn't make sense.  It's like saying that any song about splitting up that Agnetha sang was meant to be about Bjorn and her....  Number two, why would Agnetha direct this song at Bjorn, anyway?  I don't think they hated each other, and remember, they both made the decision to divorce and they continue to be great friends!  o.O

Happy birthday, Gorel!

Happy birthday to one of the sweetest ladies in the whole world: Gorel Hanser!  Thank you so much, Gorel, for making it possible for me to complete my autograph collection and for allowing me to send my drawings to the ABBA members!!  And thank you so much for everything you've been doing for the ABBA fan community!  We love you, Gorel!! <3333
