Sounds of Autumn
This morning, just after my first cup of coffee, an autumnal sonic assault begins. A murderous whirring of epic proportions. The gas powered leaf blower. It is nigh impossible to think for oneself amidst the din of modernity, particularly in suburbia, where the moving of leaves around seems to point to some sort of status.…

Cover me
New album, Songs of Instruction, by Kim Taylor, is now streaming…… I highly recommend it. The wind blows and blows and blows today. The sort of ill-wind which sets my teeth on edge and often brings on a seizure spell in poor old Iris Rose, our resident canine barometer. Mother Nature seems to be telling…

Think Less, Breathe More
Ginger Small and I have been playing a bit with stop-motion It is a blustery day in the Hundred Acre Wood, proverbially speaking. Blessed with a studio day, I seek escape from the confines of my over-working monkeyed mind in the form of writing and perhaps some play with materials on hand. It is important…

Jackson Brown, Jr.) The illustration, however, is by me. I hope your…

Resist
Been hard to concentrate round here, what with ‘political whiplash’ as one friend put it. But drawings get done in between staying informed and active. Our friends in Hamstertown are ready to welcome new friends from away who have traveled far and long and have worked so hard to make the journey to a new…

In(sta)sanity
I don’t know about y’all, but I feel rode hard and put away wet after this last week or so. That statement may seem like an uber-use of the vernacular, but I am after all, an Appalachian. I’ve always known this to be true, as my kin hail from Breathett County Kentucky, but today I…

Flux and Catch-up
It’s a delightfully cozy morning here. I am just landed from a wonderful weekend away to Oak Ridge, Tennessee for the 8th annual Tune Junkie Weekend where a few of my normally more summery connections gathered to play music and catch up and play more and more and more music. We are indeed junkies of a…
