Finally I am learning not to get "attached" to a proposed project. Last week I was called back by a lead to do some design work on a retail store front sculpture/sign on a busy street. I orginally told the owner that he needed to do something with a big empty planter box in front of his store and I sketched out a simple drawing and proposed a basic cost of the project. A couple of weeks later he called and wanted to do the project with funding with one of his suppliers. They had more ideas but really no experience in signage and such. So I told him that since he agrees on the basic concept I gave him, to go forward now he would have to come up with some design $$ for me to continue. He was fine with that and now the papers rest in a folder. If he calls back, great! If not, I'm not attached with time, money, or even desire.
