Hello everyone.

Some years ago, I illustrated a little paperback titled The Jewish American Princess Joke Book, published out of your facility in Ft. Lee, New Jersey ... (authored by Lisa 'Bunny' Friedman - NOT the author's real name by any stretch of the imagination).

Since then, my cartoon abilities have increased tremendously (blushing over such blatant self-praise), and I'm in the process of developing a manuscript (or two) dealing with "the humor of everyday living" ... not a new concept, but certainly unique simply because the illustrated scenarios and gags are "mine" (personal experiences, the absurd beings that surround us, etc.).

My my my ... now THAT was truly a run-on sentence. My grade school English teacher would be so ashamed.

Please contact me at your convenience regarding the possibilities of collaborating in order for you to publish my work.

Cordially,

Terry Sohocki ... Perrysburg, OH ... 419 874 0622
