Happy February. It’s over. We’ve got a slew of really long months ahead. We’ve got no real holidays (in the US) to speak of until Memorial Day in late May. I’m not trying to bum you out. This is a reality check. If you can, take a moment to book a few days off. All […]
Thanks to those who supported my week off. It’s pretty amazing that some of you are paying attention and even reached out in support of the break. In a little nod to the season, I’d like to share a few links to my friends and colleagues who create cool things that you all may enjoy. […]

You’ll notice another Atari link in this week’s content. I have a soft spot for Atari–100% true. I always try and mix up the disciplines. I […]
Some days bring you a reality that is hard to shake. Paul Rubens (AKA Pee Wee Herman), Angus Cloud, and Sinéad O’Connor are the most recent examples of creative people who have left their mark and we are left trying to make sense of the loss. I grew up watching Pee Wee’s Playhouse. I don’t […]
There are days, sometimes weeks, or even months when things just feel off. You are out of sync with yourself and nothing you do seems to fit or flow. It’s hard to pin down a reason, when it started, or describe–you just know. What’s even harder is finding a way out. When I was younger, […]
For me, the most random posts are the best. You get a mix of everything–no clear hierarchy. Just creative juices flowing like a ripe peach. It’s a mess, but it’s wonderful.
