Three Women Who Started A Business Together

This is a thank you note to two women I met not more than 3 years ago: My illustrator, Colleen M. Madden and My printing production specialist, Josephine Pope.

We began working together on Pet Set with nothing to go on but my vision of what the company was going to be…and it was a blurry vision.

Today, we have a small, young company with many beautifully designed products — thanks to Colleen’s artistic talent, and a pretty seamless printing and distribution mechanism — thanks to Jo’s dedication and knowledge about the printing business.

Not everyday is heaven on earth with them — we each see life from vastly different perspectives. AND, we are women, of course.

If we were TV characters, I like to think of us as Friends: Colleen is Pheobe, Jo is Rachael, and I am Monica…but we are all a little like Carrie from Sex in the City. (Although, I’m more Miranda).

I truly believe that I would not have been able to launch The Pet Set without their help. So, ladies — THANK YOU.
