Thanks a lot Marvin. After you suggested that I be paid by the word, there was a break-in at my house and this morning I find all my dictionaries defiled, pencils snapped in two, felt-tip nibs left to air-dry, duct tape wrapped around my keyboard (quite an excessive amount, I must say), and a cryptic note about the bones in my hands.
That, however, influences in no way my personal approach here, that this is for me pro bono. In the business of painting and selling paintings, I gleefully cash checks and count pennies (the proper denomination for metaphors about my earnings from painting), but if someone tried to pay me for this, I'd resign. Otherwise, I'd have other people pulling my strings, and that makes me cranky.
P.S. I do think, however, that Cynthia should be "paid", if only to help cover her expenses for hosting this show.
