A Tale of Two Flags D. Paul Angel I am currently reading The Hero With a Thousand Faces by Joseph Campbell with Sonia Lal and Katherine Hajer (who has already managed to post an early review of it!).

Illustrating “Beyond Babel”
Illustrating Beyond Babel Beyond Babel was my #FridayFlash piece from a couple Friday's past. I view the #FridayFlash pieces as an amazing way to explore and try new means of storytelling. I really liked the idea of Beyond Babel, but I can't say as that I was overly thrilled with my execution of it. (Either … Continue reading Illustrating “Beyond Babel”
Final Drawing, George Rogers Park
Final Drawing, George Rogers Park So I didn't even manage a week of posts! Knowing myself, and my life, this is neither surprising nor worrying; it is just going to happen.

Well Sh!t
So, I am literally only a couple posts into this write-every-day-and-post-it-challenge and I am already realizing the error of my ways. Sort of.

The Wheel of Time Series- * * *
The Wheel of Time Series By Robert Jordan and Brandon Sanderson * * * I made it through! Have no doubt, finishing the Wheel of Time (WoT for short) series in its entirety is a daunting task. There are 14 books total, and I am fairly certain the shortest is over 150,000 words. Needless to … Continue reading The Wheel of Time Series- * * *
Wash is My Co-Pilot
I saw a bumper sticker the other day that read, "A Leaf on the Wind, Wash is My Co-Pilot." I love geek in-jokes, and I will often research ones that I don't get. Having seen Serenity though, I got this one just fine. As much as I enjoyed it, I also chuckled that Wash's landing … Continue reading Wash is My Co-Pilot
Write More Right Now
I started this blog about a year and a half ago. When I first created it, I populated it with several different categories, as a means of organizing the subjects I wanted to write about. I have done an OK job of posting #FridayFlash pieces, but have pretty much neglected everything else. So, I am … Continue reading Write More Right Now
