I'm really gutted about this. I spent over ten years building my website, it's what launched my writing career. But between AI hijacking all my traffic, literally, traffic from searches is almost 0 now, and my host raising fees to be hundreds of dollars for the year, I just can't anymore.

Please note: I've taken my web shop down because I'm heading out on vacation starting next week.
Also, my website will be going offline when my hosting expires at the end of the year. It will remain offline indefinitely until I rebuild something simple. GenAI theft has destroyed something else.

I made one more rainbow silver Tree of Life #suncatcher last night - I think this one is my favorite so far
If interested in either of the rainbow silver trees, hit me up here - $60 shipped anywhere in the US. The one in clear beads is spoken for, but I can make similar for the same price. #bsnm

RIP Tom Stoppard.
Heads.

I played Guildenstern in a college presentation of "Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead" and am certain I didn't do it justice, nevertheless happy to be able to speak the words. What a writer. RIP.
BREAKING: British playwright Tom Stoppard, who won an Academy Award for the screenplay for “Shakespeare In Love," dies at 88.

These take awhile to make, but I love how they've turned out
Two different takes on the same "Tree of Life" sun catcher - one with clear crystal "arms" ending in colored icicles, the other with colored arms with clear icicles. Not sure which I like better, but I may do another take in gold #crafts

Reverse value drawing of a baby doll head mold. White colored pencil on black Canson paper. I used a photo negative for reference because I thought it was funny. I was always razzing my art instructors back when I was a snot nosed 20something.

Our lucky 13th year participating in this global event - Flood The Streets With Art founded by Scott Wong in 2012 as an "anti-Black Friday" movement where art is left around areas where big box stores lurk and encourage people to slow down and look around, and enjoy some free art to take home
Our drops for Flood the Streets with #Art 13: 28 November 2025. We have participated in every event since 2012. If you want to know more, check out: tinyurl.com/FTSWA13

Sadly, all the Learn Blender people were right. You couldn't pay me to go back to Maya or 3Ds Max. And I couldn't pay me either, because their license costs are insane

AI is not intelligent. Can't think. Can't create.
Can only regurgitate variations of what was trained on.
Is pretty amazing tech, no doubt. Can find previously-unobserved relationships in patterns.
But is just pattern recognition.
Currently isn't viable as technology.

Through A LOT of trial and error, I finally figured out how to print my own zines. Now I shall be UNSTOPPABLE!
I'll get these listed in my webshop tomorrow because I know exactly nobody has been waiting anxiously for me to print these zines that took untold hours to make.
