I completely forgot that I did this. Dawdlr is a great little site, a small pocket of rebellion against an online world that is ‘updated’ every single second with what people are doing, where, through status updates, twitter, you know all that jazz. Dawdlr asks the question “What are you doing, you know, more generally?” and you have to answer on a postcard. The site is updated not twice a minute, but twice a year. Simple, really, and charming and so interesting what people say, some are ambiguous, some are frank.
So I sent one in in february (according to the postmark, 2nd Feb), and it’s just been posted up:
When my spangly promotional postcards turn up I’ll send a new one in. I like seeing something from the past turn up; maybe what I write next won’t be true when it finally turns up on the site.
On another note, I’ve entered May’s Creative Flair Illustration Competition – you can see my entry here; it’s one of my mobile phone posters. Fingers crossed for that!
