May 7th, 2023 Hi, all! I’ve been under the weather since Tuesday (and have been officially voiceless since Thursday, which people around me don’t seem to have a problem with, weirdly), but I wanted to make sure I shared a schedule for next weekend’s Downtown Lakeville Art Crawl! I’ll be at Labyrinth Puzzle Rooms thatContinue reading “The Art Crawl is Coming!”

SKP 2023: The Next Step
May 3rd, 2023 “You’re so colorful the way you use the words you knowI thought I’d start this song with a compliment” Happy May! May is both my favorite month of the year and has become, recently, the most difficult (Mother’s Day and my mom’s birthday happen this month, and she isn’t here to celebrateContinue reading “SKP 2023: The Next Step”
tragic/miracle
May 1st, 2023 Normal people wake up in their normal beds on the morning of their birthday and they post the cutest pic they can find of themselves on the internet to announce that they are a year older, a whole three-hundred-and-sixty-five-days wiser. I stayed up until midnight to post this photo of me I’veContinue reading “tragic/miracle”
Final Thoughts On Us, and Them
April 28th, 2023 Enough talk of failure. There was some victory, too. As we end another month of retrospect and introspect, I want to talk about the triumphs from the year I released Them and Us. I made a list: 1. It only took me one book to realize I can do anything. By that,Continue reading “Final Thoughts On Us, and Them”
Static Interlude
April 26th, 2023 I’ve been distant. (Don’t act like you noticed. We can only hold 150 people in our heads and I’m not one of them.) Usually when I sit down and type one of these I have a central idea or general theme or, you know, a point. That is not what this is.Continue reading “Static Interlude”
Us: How do I love failure? Let me count the ways
April 17th, 2023 I’ve mentioned several times that the story of my book, Us, is the story of failure; but today, I want to count the ways. Because I’m an eternal optimist, however, failure is always only half of a story. The other half is a lesson, an annoying ray of sunshine as a bookendContinue reading “Us: How do I love failure? Let me count the ways”
Be The Sun
April 6th, 2023 It’s a weird phenomenon that we think of something nice to say about someone else and then battle within ourselves over whether or not we should say it. We should always say it. I got a gift today. As an artist, you’re always trying to figure out what kind of art youContinue reading “Be The Sun”
Them: Heroes, Villains, Humans
March 31st, 2023 I spent most of my youth trying to shock people. I think a lot of young people, especially boys, do. When I think of those moments, that era, the many times I said or did something for the sole purpose to shock, I cringe so hard I form permanent wrinkles on myContinue reading “Them: Heroes, Villains, Humans”
The World of Brushfire and the Jojo Universe, Explained!
March 30th, 2023 I saved the best for last. So, this is it. Less than 48 hours and our Kickstarter is over! This is your last chance to be a part of this, and if you’ve been on the fence, I hope you fall over on this side. If either of these books are somethingContinue reading “The World of Brushfire and the Jojo Universe, Explained!”

March 24th, 2023 Happy Friday!
