Default Beads Wanted for New Book

Marjorie Langston and I are working on a new book!

As I did with the last book, Just Plain Beads! -- I will be paying the guest artists for their work.

Please send low resolution images, and the price of the bead to:

griffindove@mindspring.com

Any bead goes! If your bead is selected, payment will be twice the price of the bead (1/2 is for the bead, 1/2 is for the copyright to that particular bead).

There is no due date, though once the rough draft is finished, I'll be posting one.

Thanks! Can't wait to see the work!
Deanna

I have a question. What does the copyright involve? Does that mean you wouldn't be able to make that bead again? What about similar beads?

That particular bead, not the series or like-beads ...I would be able to photograph it, publish it, use it for advertising, etc. without needing to get your permission for its derivative uses. Nor would I need to worry about it showing up in other journals, books, and magazines.

Hi Deanna!
Are you looking for a special kind of beads or is any bead in any technique welcome?
Regards, Verena

Any type...even it if doesn't get used for this upcoming publication, I'll have a picture for a "go-to" library!

This is a current thread! No deadline yet, and email address is in the first post.

Price the beads exactly as you would if you were selling them to the general public. I'll multiply by two in my head.


Thanks to all who have responded! The work is wonderful. A couple of issues have come up.

All pictures will be kept in my "library". If you can, if you have the photo software, please put your artist name and email address on the picture. If I need to contact you in a couple of years, this will help me in case my mail software gets compromised.

Please, no sets at the present time. They are just as beautiful, but for now the preference is for single beads.

Thanks again! Wonderful beadmakers!
Deanna

Deanna, can this be a picture of a bead that we have already sold?

I need the bead to photograph so that all the photos have the same backdrop, another reason I am buying both bead and its copyright. If you love a bead you have made and sold, make something like it to submit!

That said, the beads chosen should have plenty of individual identity.

OK, thanks. It really wasn't clear that you would be buying the BEAD, just that you wanted the image and cost. But I understand now...I'm a little slow.

Hi Deanna!
Are you interested in Ceramic Artist Beads? Or is this for Lampwork Artist Beads only?

Hi Deanna.

I always like to submit things, when I can get my act together! Can you give a few details about the book so we know what we're submitting to? Or did I miss something?

Thanks!

Deanna is on her way to Touchstone to teach for a week, but I can answer a couple of the questions:
Since providing glass beadmakers with information to refine their skills is the purpose of the books, this is a call for lampworked beads. (Although, having said that, there may be some books down the road that could include other things - better let Deanna give a definite answer here).

Deanna has several books in the works - some of them I don't have details about - so she is looking for a variety of beads for inclusion in those books.

The book we are working on together doesn't have a title yet. For some reason, it is always easier to decide on a title when the book is almost finished. I'll bet we sorted through 150 titles before settling on Just Plain Beads for the last book!

So Deanna just wants the bead? Not a tutorial on how the bead was made? Send a low res picture with our name, contact info and price on it? Keep the bead until we hear yeah or nay from Deanna?

I did realize that, that's why I was hanging onto it till you hear from Deanna yeah or neah. I just wondered if a tutorial was required with the bead.

Hey Nicker - yes, just the bead. No tutorial. You're correct - send the photo to her. If she thinks it is something she can use, she will arrange to purchase the bead from you.

I think she will be back on-line around the 15th.

Thanks to everyone for the interest,
Marjorie

Hi Melanie - there's no specific due date. We'll need images for the book we are working on now (no projected completion date yet), but Deanna will also need images for later publications. As you create beautiful things, send the pics to her.

See ya in the fall - Marjorie

I'm just posting so I don't loose the thread... so she wants us to email a small crappy picture to her of a bead with a price?

OK I can do that!

Yep, easy, easy!

No deadlines, no need for professional picture.

Send pics whenever something special comes out of the kiln!

Marj and I are hoping our book comes out in the Fall....but these books always seem to take longer than expected!

Quick question-I may be missing something here ...How soon will we be notified of your interest/non-interest in a bead? If you're keeping a file for future books, does that mean we have to keep the bead on hand (not sell it) indefinately?
