The next day Merry got up and sure enough there were no emails regarding her email that she had sent the day before. She really wanted to get an illustrating job, but she realized that she was going to just have to write about more life insurance policies. So, she got onto her life insurance policies web site and started to answer everyone’s life insurance policies questions. They were asking all kinds of boring questions about the coverage in the uk, and if they would suffer the liability. She worked for a few hours, and then at last she was done wither her days work, and then she moved on to her own work.

She drew a few new pictures and then scanned the images into the computer. She drew one picture of a turtle, with a sea foam green shell that she covered with glitter dust. The others were people. One was a young woman reading under and apple tree with a bight, red, juicy apple in her hand. She was smiling, just like Merry knew she would if she was able to get an illustrating job. The others were old fashioned women wearing full hoop skirts and holding lacy fans in their hands. Once they were in, she decided to try the classified web site again. She got onto the computer and emailed people as follows:

Hello, I just found your request for a children's book illustrator on the classifieds and was very interested. I have illustrated on other children's book, and loved it. I had a lot of fun working with the author to design everything, and the finished product is coming out very soon! I attached a few samples of my work, and if you would like to see anything in particular then feel free to ask me to do a small sample. I would love to hear back from you and would love to illustrate for you as well!

Thanks,Merry Weather

P.S. I apologize for the size and quality of the attached files, the classifieds greatly limits the size of the email attachments.

Again, she received no reply, so she sent another, this time highlighting her work in life insurance policies.

Dear Author, I just found your request for an illustrator, and was interested immediately. Because the drawings are black and white, my price should not be too expensive too. I have written several books on life insurance, but have yet to illustrate on.

If you like my work and think that it is right for your project then you can contact me here.

Thank you,Merry

And so she began to wait to see if anyone would reply. She decided that she would try one more day if no one got back to her this time.
