Busy.

1. A short story i wrote is now published in a focused compilation reflecting the musical art of the band Quote. A really great idea, actually. They had an artist and a writer create a piece of work for every song on their at that time unreleased album. I have not seen the finished product, but tonight is the release party, and i look forward to seeing it.

2. 48 hour film project is upon us again, and Fighting with Forks, our production company, is busy preparing to take part in the city of Nashville. The fun is next weekend. To find out more about 48 hour film project, go here. To see our movie from last year, go here.

3. I wrote a novel. After I finished it, I hid it and wrote it again from scratch. I then took that and committed the idea to memory, still not like it. For the last several months I’ve been pounding out a new idea. I’m about 17,000 words in so far, and i think it’s a large improvement on the previous 2 attempts at a novel. I’ll try to keep you posted.

4. Saturday, August 9, and for a month or 2 after, I’ll be showing 3 paintings at the East Nashville Tomato Festival. You can get all the details here. If you live in Nashville, you really should come down. I have several friends showing, and there are usually many affordable pieces to purchase. Fun stuff for the whole family.

5. Several of you have commented about commissioning me to paint something for an empty space in your home or office. I’m in a painting mood, so now’s a good time for those still interested.

6. Oh yeah. Still working on the Whiskerino documentary.

cheers friends.
