Art and Amazon

The Bronchitis is gone, but I’ve pulled a muscle due to strenuous coughing. All I want is to feel 100% again! I would love that!

In other news, I’ve still been working on revising my NaNo novel and have started another drawing. It’s almost complete; I just want to tweak a few features on his face before uploading the polished piece. Here is the basic sketch for it:

Ice, anyone?

He’s holding a pair of silver tongs with a single ice cube. This drawing has been purely digital. Normally I’ll do the sketch on paper first because I like the feel and the control of using a pencil. However, sometimes I like to practice on digital media only. There are always areas to work on.

Sara and the Burpleberry Rescue is now available on Amazon!

Mr. Burple Berry is thrilled that his world is now visible on the Internet giant, Amazon.com! He hopes that more and more people can experience the adventure that saved his world from a gloomy doom. He had a blast on Twitter for Fiction Friday, and here is his tale:

“I’m stuck here. I know they can see me! They said hello in 1969, but they couldn’t take me along. I guess I’ll always be The Man on the Moon.”

He looks forward to tackling next week’s prompt because it is what made the rescue possible. He hopes to see you on the 29th. …And the prompt is Math.

SGS: Creativity!

Looking at Heather’s wonderful prompts, I just realized that April is almost over. Is it really the last Sunday of the month already!? How did that happen? Even with quarantine it feels like it just zipped by!  This week’s Seriously Geeky Sundays theme hits close to home, and I am super excited about it. As you all know, I’m an artist who loves to draw, paint, write, and sew!  26th April – Creativity What does creativity in fandoms/geeky interests mean to you? EVERYTHING. Just look at Club High Castle!  High Castle is the one fandom where I’ve felt like I’ve been allowed to flourish. The countless hours and dedication I’ve put into the things I’ve created has been appreciated by both fans and the cast and crew.

You should see the left half of my closet! Hanging there is an assortment of medieval dresses, Star Trek uniforms, and other odes to my favorite fandoms that I’ve collected over the years.

Review: PKD’s Unfinished Sequel to TMITHC

I finally had a chance to read the two mysterious chapters of a scrubbed sequel to PKD’s The Man in the High Castle. I finished them a few days weeks ago, but their mark has yet to fade from the recesses of my mind. While I understand why he never finished it, I wish there was more.  The chapters were accompanied by an essay and a fictional blurb about Hawthorn Abendsen. Naziism and The High Castle (1964) is an eye opener into the mind of PKD. He asks pointed questions about human nature and discusses Nationalism— no one is immune from falling into it. The essay reminds me of a quote ages ago when Season 2 of High Castle had just aired: I think we have is to humanize Nazis.
