I was trying for a tie-in between an egg cracking and a code being cracked. I only realized half-way through that the red breast only occurs on male robins and this would have to be the female. Oops. I’m also aware that robin eggs are generally blue and these are white. Call it forgetfullness or [...]

Here’s my attempt for last week’s Illustration Friday.
New Name

Well, I have clearly failed to make this project/experiment work. I won’t go into what that says about me because I’ve spent too much time down on myself already this weekend.
So, rather than dumping this page, I’ll be making it into a simple posting place for my creative dabblings. That’s pretty much what it was, [...]

I’ve been awful about posting and I know it.
I’ve got 500 or so words today of a new story that may not go anywhere. I’ve been listening to an audiobook of “The Story Girl” by L.M. Montgomery, so it may read as a little old fashioned since I’ve got that sort of vocabularly stuck in [...]
Week 16 – Written Only

Another bit of NaNoWriMo. Again, it’s bits and pieces and rough. I’m afraid the visual hasn’t been done yet this week. I’ll try to get something done and possibly up tomorrow.

A bit more NaNoWriMo (which I think I may have to give up on) and a sketch that doesn’t show up on my camera (I penciled it lightly because I’m going to watercolor it later) and so isn’t posted. Oh, the writing is in bits and pieces that may not necessarily follow each other in [...]

Another offering from my NaNoWriMo attempt. I’m not sure if I like what I’m coming up with. However, liking it or not, I did a bit more writing that usual this week. I’m only posting 1,150 words of here though. The visual is a rather muddy watercolor of one scene in the story.
Everything on this [...]
Week 13

I know I’ve skipped two weeks, but what with having family over from the States and getting married, I think I have some valid excuses. Anyhoo, here’s Week 13. This week I have a bit more of Mertle trying to get to the moon and two unfinished scenes from my attempt at NaNoWriMo. For a [...]

Kate gave me the idea for the writing this week. She was joking, but it turned out to be a very nice story idea. “A badger who wants to go to the moon.” She even drew me a little sketch of the badger dreaming about space travel. I’ve included it below.
This week’s visual is the [...]

I do know why I love the smell and feel of autumn air. It’s a bit like cold water when you’re thirsty: cool, clear, and sharp. It cleans out your lungs at the same time as filling your nose with the smell of clean plant decay and wood-smoke. It’s air that seems to call you [...]
