I mentioned the other day about the poetry book I’m working on. By now I have pretty much everything together, ready to move into InDesign to typeset it. I ended up ditching a lot of the minor poems and there will even be a few actual lyrics from the...

To think I once loved you —impossible!— but I did or the person I once was did Another place old poems in old notebooks old songs I once sang I cringe now, my face red with shame But you never knew that word —you still don’t— but I did...

Another week drags on… seems like on Wednesday I had some clever idea for a blog post but I was lazy and didn’t write it so now I’ve forgotten and here we are. Well, one can argue blog posts are never as clever as the blogger might think. So...

PSA: Never write about someone you hate, because you might accidentally find yourself liking them. Especially if you do your research, which you really should. The first episode of that weird sitcom/web series thing I’m working on (referenced in the last blog) has the main character, Nick (an aging...

Wow… what a change a few months brings, and in this one case it’s one of the only good changes of 2020: I’m back to writing. So… yeah, the whole art thing fizzled for a variety of reasons but mostly because that involves being in the widget business and...

So, parcel delivery apparently happens on Saturdays, at least for Amazon orders… which is weird because it all comes via Canada Post who usually never deliver on weekends, but I guess since we’ve all been on house arrest to satisfy the goddamn corona Karens everyone shops online instead of...

Mostly, anyway. I think I have to tweak a bio over the weekend somewhere. I’ve split my portfolio into 4 chunks: painting & drawing, illustration, digital art & design, and textiles work, because that seemed like the most logical way to do it. Right now it seems like almost...

Literally. So it’s been almost a year since I last updated here, which will look like like the first post because there’s years’ worth of content that I didn’t feel like digging through and locating and reposting images etc to make it all work again so they’re all drafts....
