Art Day!

Today my good friend Alex is coming over and we're going to dabble in artsy things.  Some of that may include the boring task of painting the lattice for our screen porch and the rose trellis, but it needs to get done!

I've got some commissions to work on today, and a few picture frames.  I found canvas frames at Wally World for three dollars, so I'm going to do a few and take to InsideOut and see if Sheilah wants to sell them with my stools.

Also have a few ATCs in the works that I may work on today!  Who knows!  It will definitely be a day of adventure!

Hmm...

As I sit here with my cup of coffee listening to the soft plaintive piano theme of How's Moving Castle I feel myself drifting back towards writing projects...don't worry I still have some artistic things in the works, but gears are shifting.

I met with my good friend and fabulous artist Jared Faust of Empire Generic to discuss some upcoming projects of his, and how I might help.  I will be working on some scripts for him, and at the moment that is all I am at  liberty to say, muhahahahaaaaa!

Still working on getting a few pictures of my latest pieces to share.  One day I'll get off my butt, and stop giving excuses and take the picture...not sure where my camera cord is at the moment...hmm...

For writing scribblies, please visit my other blog: Two Dismensional Ephemera

Ciao!

Need Your Help...

So I am in the midst of creating maps of the world in which my novel Children of Destiny takes place. The first part that I am working on is Achelon City, and is where the bulk of the action of the story takes place. It is a gigantic city [about the size of two-three Atlantas] and is comprised of a mixture of humans from Earth [refugees after Earth was attacked] and indigenous peoples. I am in the process of laying out the city and the streets and such and therefore need A LOT of names! Because it is a mixture of Earth culture and alien cultures I need everything from actual street names from large cities such as L.A. New York, London, Tokyo, Paris, etc; names of famous people, mythological names [Greek, Welsch, Japanese, Aboriginal, Egyptian anything] to random made up names that you think sound pretty. Anything and Everything! Feel free to either leave it as a message here or message or email them to me! Thanks and as soon as I get everything finalized I will post the finished map! And then onto the next! Woot!

Lack of Sleep...

...sucks, and is a good thing at the same time.

Funny how that works....Stuff still in the works.  Coming soon!
