Shipping Coraline

Well, my three lovely ladies are leaving home tomorrow. I’m shipping the Coraline puppets to Bill Shaffer at Subterranean Press. He in turn will send one to Neil Gaiman, one to Dave McKean and one to someone who pre-ordered the special edition of Coraline.

I wanted to make certain that I had good photos of the dolls, so I went over to Ellen Datlow’s this evening and let her do her camera magic. Behold.

    These are great pictures. I’m anxious to hear what Bill Shaffer’s reaction is to the “dolls” aka puppets. I’ve certainly enjoyed the progress reports and pictures.

    Those are so perfectly Jammies. Or, jammies. Those ones are definitely lower-case.

    Oh! She’s beautiful! I have to admit, you’ve opened up my eyes to the world of puppetry.

    Brava.
