Starting with this week, I'm getting determined to keep track of the time I spend on my art stuff. I really do want to make this a productive venture. And I know I can. I just need to get more organized about this. Ugh. Organized. There's a word that drives me a bit batty. Hopefully I can overcome that feeling, and really make some progress ( Read more... )

New year, new habits, I suppose...

I've been away from here for several weeks... and all I have to post is a link.
