Thanks guys.
It's very exciting, but very frightening at the same time. I've been doing alright on my own while working full time though so hopefully things will keep looking up! I know it's going to be hard to start, but I am determined to get there.
SomeAudioGuy - I've burned 2.5 years out here so far, immersing myself in training and getting my skills up to be competitive. :) I'm getting my commercial & animation demos done with Richard Horvitz & Pat Torres (been studying with Richard for awhile now), Interactive Demo with Susan at Voicetrax West and my promo demo will be done with Leigh Gilbert, who I'm studying promos with currently. :)
