Brynne,
 I'm sorry too, but still you've made quite an accomplishment. I'm sure it takes an awful lot of talent to make it as far as you did, ya did good  Smiley

It's probably for the best. Brynne would have just wound up murdered and thrown in a ditch anyway.

Just because I promised to keep you guys updated, I wanted to let you know that I contacted Chris at W&K and took myself out of the running. I could not find anyone who could watch my son for those 2 weeks.  Cry

I'll try for the next EP, I promise. I only hope next time around I'm lucky enough to make the top 15, again.

Aww poor you. At least you've been noticed though, they will keep an eye on you now! Grin

Oh my gosh, Brynne, I'm so sorry.  Having spent many years trying to "farm" my poor kid out to others during my business travels, I commend you.  (At the time I felt I had no choice - now I realize I did...sigh)

Next time, you can mail him to me....I'll even pick him up at your airport.

I'm sorry, sweetie. Good job on making a hard decision. *big hugs and flowers*

Brynne, did you tell EA the reason for your withdrawal?  Maybe they could have helped out by providing a carer.  It might be worth explaining your situation to them.  I'm sure they'd help if they knew.  You're just what they need for their campaign - and if you can dodge JM then you'll still get there!

Well, I told Wieden and Kennedy the reason. I was one of the 15 finalists, w&k chose. Wieden and Kennedy had just submitted us to EA, and EA was going to pick the winner(s) from those 15. Since I was still just a finalist, I doubt they would have been able to do anything to help me at this point. Plus, with my son being a special needs student (asperger's), his care is a little more complicated.  School starts for him on the 1st of August, so that was my main concern, just having someone to be around to get him on and off the bus, plus be there in case of emergency.

But don't worry, I've already got my foot in the door for the next campaign. I won't let you down. Wink

ETA: I just got an email from Chris. She said they will be doing this campaign again, and are going to call me if something comes up before then. They're keeping my contact info.  So they are still interested in working with me.

A bummer that you couldn't get child care lined up, Brynne.  My crystal ball tells me there's a happy ending the next time around.   Smiley
