I’m sitting here with a novel to write, and I can’t put one damned word on the page. Totally bunged up. Afraid to write the wrong thing. Tired of failing to break through. Trying to make myself climb to the summit, but terrified of dying on the mountainside, alone and forgotten.

It’s not all sadness and ( Read more... )

Okay, no more politics today. Gotta get dressed and try to do a bit of cleaning in the kitchen. The cupboards need scrubbing. As it is, the exterminator will dally through here, declare it unclean, blame us for everything, and waltz out without placing so much as a trap, let alone some actual bait. I’m ( Read more... )

What do you suppose the gestalt narrative of modern television is? I’ve been thinking about this for a bit.

Okay, what’s going on here? I posted a few days ago, but my website says I haven’t posted in weeks. Weird.

Site’s probably going to be down for a week or two, until we get things paid up. I’ll keep folks posted if anything important happens on one of my free websites.

Friends of mine sold one of my ( Read more... )

I’ve started back to work on Limbo Tarot, and in particular, the Fool. I have quite a few unfinished or barely started projects, but seeing some tarot-related work from a dear friend got me thinking about my unfinished painting series. It’ll take years to complete, especially if I keep up with this work ( Read more... )

Good Morning. it’s likely to be a long day for Dawn and I. We’re going to be setting up our art (again) this weekend, this time at the Collaboration Station at 294 James Street North, just before Barton as you head north on the right side. I’d love to see some of you come out to visit us. I’d also love to ( Read more... )

Silly title today. I’m rearranging my extensive free font collection. The idea is to have it organized in time for tonight, when I’ll be sharing some of my Trade Secrets™ with one of the Anvil staffers, who has volunteered to be my apprentice. I’m trying to make things as streamlined and sensible as I can ( Read more... )
