Hello from Starving Artist Central
I know it's a long shot, but does anyone who reads my ramblings here happen to secretly be a particularly generous multimillionaire who finds me somewhat entertaining?
If you're not, but you can afford to buy a bead, could you please bid on one of my auctions tonight? I'm feeling kind of pathetic right now, but I DESPERATELY NEED CASH. The past couple of weeks have been like trying to run up an escalator that's going down.
Besides, I personally think I've been producing some of my best work ever lately.
Back to the torch... later.
Hi Sarah, I bid on Mind Reader, hopefully this will be my first Sarah Hornik bead. Hey, you will get some money and hopefully i will win this beautiful bead. i never knew raku looked so pretty on purple!!! Gorgeous! I want it, thanks for begging, Hee Hee!!!! Peace,

hi Sarah
sorry to hear about your enforced diet!! I've just bid on Mystical Mint & Rosa! I have to go sleep now - so will find out in the morning if I have won either of them - if nothing else, I will have bumped the price up enough for you to "keep the wolf from the door" at least for a while!!!
take care

Hey Christine, Thanks a bunch!

SweetiePie, I love your lampwork but you need to snap out of it. Your beads, a single bead, regularly go for a LOT of bucks, more than any other Ebay artist. And you deserve it because your work is gorgeous. FYI, I am a breast cancer survivor and to see your plea for us to bid on your beads, immediately following a death notice for a friend of yours...really, get a grip. It could be much worse.
Love your work, always.

Well - I hope it is clear to everyone reading this, that I would not resort to "pleading" if it this blog were not my last thread of hope.
With all due respect to Walter and those who knew him - which is LOTS - the show must go on. The rapid decline in the dollar rate has affected me very badly, my glass is my sole source of income and I am dangerously close to being kicked out of my apartment.
I'm truly sorry if I offended you (or anybody else). That was never my intention.
Thanks for the compliments.

Well - I missed out on some fab beads.
I think we are all having financial problems at the moment, and as you say Sarah: life goes on, which includes keeping a roof over our heads. You must be in dire straits to have asked for your friends to help out - nobody is buying my jewellery either - its not exactly a necssesity (how do you spell that?)I need to spend today sorting out my website to sell from (hopefully) so may need some help from an ex-web designer!! to everyone reading this - I hope things aren't too difficult for you at this globally penny-pinching time. Hope you now have enough to pay your rent Sarah.
best regards!

I adore your work and I would buy if I wasn't a starving artist and student!!! Nothing else for it...Part-time job for extra cash or move back home to Mum and Dads! Then share a studio with your other glass buddies. I know that is not an idea that takes your fancy too much. At least from what I can tell, you live in a relatively safe part of Israel.
Cheers

I love your work and understand your situation all too well. I hadn't thought too much about the value of the dollar as it might affect you. Ouch! I can't afford to buy a bead right now, but can spare $25 for a friend in need. I know from what you write, you are not living a "lavish" lifestyle. Can I paypal you? Consider it payment for the wonderful bead making video. Hopefully I will get to meet you and take a class from you someday. I do have 2 of your beads and love them.

I am not a multimillionaire, and your beads a LITTLE BIT MORE then entertaining for me, but I will trying my best for you. Sorry, Sarrochka, but I am not going to put comments for some times, because I am having some bad time right now (going through some shit with my 17years old son). I love you and your talent. Please continue doing things you like to do in your life! It is very important! Thank you so much, you bring a lot of joy in my life. Hope to talk to you soon.
