Touché! of the Day

Thursday,
July 2, 2009:

It's got to be quite a job skill for health care professionals to make small talk, with their fingers up your nether regions.

2) New Touché! Cartoon In PLAYGIRL Magazine
September/October 2008 Issue of PLAYGIRL Magazine, page 75, on newsstands now.

8/08 Newsflash: The editor said she stipulated that she was publishing contributor's work for "no fee." I have a previous contract agreement which does stipulate my work/contributor payment and usage rights. I did not agree for my work to appear in PLAYGIRL, or agree to publish for "no fee." I found my cartoon in print, on the newsstand. Mixed blessing surprise.

After several e-mails back and forth, I received news that they will "make an exception" and pay the invoice. A big thank you and huge recommendation to join both Colorado Alliance of Illustrators (Thanks CAI's-Cherish & Ben) and Colorado Lawyers for the Arts (thanks René). Appreciate your assistance!


Also, the magazine editor Nicole Caldwell announced that the last print edition of PLAYGIRL magazine would be the Jan/Feb 09 issue. Future service will continue online.
Still no payment weeks later-Stay tuned for a positive outcome!
