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 …
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 …
This is a portrait of Green (click image to full-view), a character from my short story “Abandon All —-” which appears in The Urban Green Man Anthology, currently out from Edge Science Fiction and Fantasy. I had a lot of fun with Green, both in the design and the characterization. I had in mind a character …
I want to take a moment and talk about La Sirena by John Picacio. La Sirena is an illustration for Picacio’s upcoming Loteria project, it won the 2013 Chesley award for product illustration, and it’s one of the images from his 2014 calendar. You can see it if you go to his kickstarter page and …

This month (March) has been declared #DWJMarch, in honor of the late, great Diana Wynne Jones, by K over at WeBeReading.com. This year she is hosting a read-along of Jones’s delightful novel Howl’s Moving Castle, and in honor of that I thought I’d share my thoughts on the book—and do a little fanart. Reflections on …
I had this brilliant idea to do a blog post about horses in fiction and how they are misrepresented and how to do them justice. 5,000 words later I realized what I had was a series of blog posts, and ones that would need to be heavily proofed at that. So while those are getting shaken …
Those of you who follow me on twitter (@GrimbyTweets) may have noticed my habit of posting links to a webcomic called Angeldevil every Friday. Perhaps you’ve followed them. Perhaps you’ve read what you’ve found there. Perhaps not. This Friday I’m posting the first chapter of the last volume of Angeldevil, and the last page of Angeldevil …
As I mentioned in yesterday’s con report for WFC 2012, the pictures I did of Death and the Cat for this short story were quite a hit. In fact, they sold out so fast that many people who wanted one did not even get a chance to place a bid! This kept being pointed out to me …
