Art - Music - Storytelling. The artifacts of a life well spent. Sunday, May 20, 2012. Save Your Money - Go Public. I'm chipping my pen out of the ice to talk to you parents out there. Don't pay for your child's K-12 schooling. Save your money for college. You see, yesterday I went to a birthday party of an old college friend. It ended up being like a class reunion, and we spent a bit of time reminiscing old times and catching up on new times. Not (I didn't even want to mention the number of teachers at m...

Art - Music - Storytelling. The artifacts of a life well spent. Sunday, February 1, 2015. Makin' a Dragon: Snaggletooth. I'm making a dragon. That's right. Making one. A dragon. Last December a friend posted a video on Facebook of an artist creating a paper mache dragon. The artist is Dan Reeder, and his video went viral. I watched his videos over and over, bought one of his books, and even emailed him for help. (He responded! What a cool guy.). You can make a dragon too! Check out Dan's website. But do ...

Art - Music - Storytelling. The artifacts of a life well spent. Sunday, December 23, 2012. Book review: The Book Without Words is just that. Book review: The Book Without Words: A Fable of Medieval Magic. Characters with confusing motivations. A potentially interesting setting with limited detail. A slow-moving plot that goes almost nowhere. Pages and pages of dialogue that go where the plot goes. These are the reasons I was so disappointed with. The Book Without Words. 8212;it would be better to read.

Art - Music - Storytelling. The artifacts of a life well spent. Tuesday, July 21, 2015. Please, Fence Me In. I have a confession: I lied in a previous post. Where I wrote about my yard. I had just painted the picket fence around my house in order to qualify for a mortgage refinance. In my post, I claimed that with this beautiful, newly-painted fence, I had to landscape my yard. Be clear about what you want. Poor, sad little yard. Needs a fence, no? Then Gary and his crew came in and waved their magic wan...

Leo Lesquereux, paleobotanist. I just finished the first two books of the "Midnighter" series by Scott Westerfeld. A sci-fi fantasy story targeting young adults, the source of good magic is the number 13, and good guys in the story name their weapons with tridecalogisms. To name a few:. Our heroes are highschoolers (oh, that's a tridec!

Art - Music - Storytelling. The artifacts of a life well spent. Monday, May 23, 2011. As the school year winds to an end, I get a little busier and have less time to read. However, I did find some time to fit in a few more good reads. Goodreads Challenge 43/85: In Cold Blood. How did Truman Capote write such a detailed story from countless interviews and hours of research? Thank you, Mr. Capote. Goodreads Challenge 42/85: The Odessa File. Goodreads Challenge 41/85: Magic Study. The first book in the seri...
