I’m long overdue for a good, old fashioned update. No philosophical musings or bitter rants today, just some straight up information. I may have mentioned this before, but I recently got a tumblr. It is built off the old Year of the God-Fox tumblr; since the comic is complete now there is little to talk about. I, …
I am going to AnthroCon next month, and in order to fill up my panels in the art show I decided it would be fun to paint a bunch of cats. Me being me, of course, they had to be quirky, fantastical cats, and thus my Cats of the Week series was born! Each cat …
Lately I’ve been having thoughts on the process of my writing, and jotted down these notes as a reminder for myself of what it is I am doing. I look forward to coming back to them in a few years, to see if they still hold true. In the mean time, perhaps they can provide …
My first original piece in a while, this was a lot of fun to do—and a great relief to find I can still do delicate, time-consuming watercolors, after having spent the better part of the last two years slaving away at Year of the God-Fox. This painting inspired a little snippet of a story (see below), which …
So much is happening. So very busy. Haven’t had time to blog at all in a serious way. Hope you are following me on twitter—as that’s where the party is these days. A couple of things have happened recently that I wanted to write about, however. The first is that Professor Odd #4: The Elder Machine …

This is because, in the hierarchy of Things I Need to Do, blogging comes somewhere below “Watching silly television shows about robots in order to relax” and a good ways below “Writing new stories” “Editing stories” “making pictures” and …
A project I’ve been dreaming of for several months now, the Astral Chimera are a series of oil paintings re-imagining stars as mythic beasts (chimeras). The first batch, containing Sirius, Regulus, Fomalhaut, Procyon, Polaris and Betelgeuse recently made their debut at the Further Confusion art show. All six originals are currently for sale, and any …
These four paintings were done in October and November of 2013 for an art show at Midwest FurFest (where they all sold, happily). I had wanted to try doing horses as representations of the planets, and began with Jupiter as an experiment. That turned out so well I went on and did the other three …
As explained in a previous post, for the month of November 2013 I undertook a modified version of the NaNoWriMo challenge. Instead of writing a 50,000 word novel in a month, I am aimed to write 50,000 words of fiction (excluding blog posts like this one and other non-story writing, such as introductions and blurbs). I allotted myself 22 days to …
