As a full-time freelance illustrator, I usually have numerous projects going on at once. So in addition to the trade picture book that I'm working on, I'm also illustrating a bunch of Christmas cards right now that are for Christmas 2009. Yep, one and a half years away! Greeting card companies work far in advance, just like picture books.
