Turn Down That Music You Darn Kids!

I am deviating a little from the norm here and am going to talk about something I never really talk about and that is music. I never really talk about music because it is the one thing I love that I am really self conscious about because I know so many people who are musicians,… Continue reading Turn Down That Music You Darn Kids!

Manners, Manners!

Oh dear, oh dear, oh dear my friends, it really seems as if we have lost touch with some basic manners these days and it's awfully disconcerting. I understand that we all forget from time to time to be polite, to consider the feelings of others and some of the other simple things that, in… Continue reading Manners, Manners!

Play Nice

   When it comes to doing arts shows and conventions there are a lot of things that can bring down the whole feel of the thing and that throws cold water on things. There is a real big one that has of late begun to nag at me and that is the bitterness between shows… Continue reading Play Nice

Giving Back

The road to where I am today has had more twists than I care to remember but maybe that is the nature of passion - to take you wherever it is that you will find it. When you stop following that passion, when you stop following your heart you lose sight of what it was… Continue reading Giving Back

Anyway, I got serious about writing back when my friend Mike… Continue reading Tools of the Trade (and stuff)

Psst…It's Almost Here…

Ok, so here's my update on all things book. As it stands I am done editing Book Four and am happy to be done with it.

Head Count

Well, it's the end of another year and it's time to start looking at how things went. Well, at least as far as writing and art goes.

This is a small fair that takes place just as Fall is beginning down a side street near Detroit's Farmer's Market. The street is home to a lot of artists and indie scene folks and both… Continue reading Service Street Fair 2010
