We've got a lot of #theater coming up! You should join me in ditching some streaming services and put that money into local theater, like...

Paper pushin' time! I saw some sales (and positive reviews!) following my last post about my #rockandroll #timetravel novella, which is great because I'm proud of this project and would love more attention for it.

Weekly Update – January 27, 2026
It hit me, too late to really do anything about it, that I forgot to prep a regular weekly post last week, but I guess that's a moot point considering I didn't have anything to report. This week isn't much better, except, god help me, I have another project in mind, a vague idea that finally came together into a solid concept, and I really need more free time in my life so I can work on it.

I have stuff I need to do, but I clearly cannot move. Things will just have to wait.

It's not QUITE done - but it's close! I unfortunately won't have a chance to work on it again until Sunday, but should be able to finish it then. #art #watercolor #wip #dogsofbluesky

Progress is definitely being made. I gave today off, but also a lot I'd like to do*, so we'll see how much further I get today.

*Clearly one of those things is watching @dimension20.bsky.social, as you can see from the view of my computer screen.

A local bookstore has a call for art for a show with a hearts theme, so I did this study. Not sure I like it enough to do at scale, though. #watercolor #art #study
