If I put together a short course on illustration for a nominal fee. Would you be interested in attending?

Happy Holidays and Merry Christmas to all my peeps who celebrate such things. If you manage to have even a small fraction of the good cheer, family, and friends that I have been blessed with, then you're fortunate indeed!

Ok - seriously - does this seem like a great basis for a business to anyone else?

"Yeah. We got yer healthy salads riiiiight here..."

Thanks to burningkirby for the heads up.

Heya kids,

If you're into role-playing, and want to try something a little different, check out the new storefront for my dearly beloved Nevermet Press. We've got our first product available to the public: The Desire.

It's a PDF filled to overflowing with original content for your campaign - all surrounding one primary villaness: Desiree Turpis - a madame whos cunning is only outmatched by her greed. With everything from encounters to magic items to maps by some of the greatest RPG bloggers out there today, I can tell you that it would be money well spent if you just got the one PDF. However, one of the group was kind enough to create a second version of the PDF in portrait view with fewer graphics so that you can print out a copy without burning through an ink cartridge.

Go - check it out - enjoy. That's what it's there for!

Also - if you want more content for your gaming sessions for absolutely FREE, check out the website here: http://www.nevermetpress.com

I have a new Wally-paper on my computer at work. This article has sound advice for folks like me - artists who can't stop themselves from 'noodling' an image and just get on with it.

I was thinking about all the homework that spiritualmonkey is doing on the Krampus and I decided to doodle one up during my lunch break. Sorry for the crappy camera phone pic. I'll upload a better one when it's more complete.

I just read a really fascinating take on the 'new economy' of this digital age by Kevin Kelly (creator of WIRED magazine among other things).

This is a subject matter that I have been finding absolutely fascinating of late, so I thought that I would post a quick link here and ask for your thoughts. You, my Very Smart People™ - I want to hear what you think about this post.

To start us off:

Is there something that you pay for today based on one of the eight generatives that he talks about?

Is there one of the eight that you look for more than the others?

That means more to you personally?

Why?

I propose that we all follow Adam P. Knave's lead here.

Any thoughts?

So psyched! I just got my copy of Stays Crunchy In Milk by Adam P. Knave. Just finished the last thing I was reading, so the timing couldn't be better. Really looking forward to cracking this open!

It's not exactly a glamorous location to snap a quick picture of it, but my desk at the office will have to do for now. :)

Some news from one of the Industrial Jazz Group menbers... new music!

W000t!

There's a new pho place near(ish) us! Pho Cali doesn't do a shabby job either! xtingu and I both had spring rolls and beef pho for dinner last night. While it was not life changing, it was certainly tasty, and I'm quote certain that we'll be back again. A lot.

Our front yard looks amazing!

Sven hits the nail on the head in today's Things Wrong With Me.

Ahhh - home sweet home!

... looks to be an awesome performance space!

Just wanted to post a quick note to link everyone to my photos from Hudson NY. Enjoy and feel free to comment all you like! 

Have I mentioned yet that I LOVE this town?!

I'm really diggin Hudson so far. :)

Two simple questions:

1. Who's your favorite superheo of all time. You can pick only one here.

2. Why? What about the hero in number 1 makes them so amazing to you as an individual.

Discuss amongst yourselves. I'll check back shortly.
