To everyone who replied to my artist collaboration post(s), please:

-Look over my previous posts in detail. They're the best description I can think of right now.

-Send portfolio link! It's the first thing I'm going to ask you for anyway.

-Mostly character art so far. Not what I'm looking for.

It's official. I love #turnstile, but I can't accept the tinny rhythm guitar sound.

I hereby offer my services to help ;]

The band has historically had a vibe, and it speaks to me. That's what I'm looking for.

Additionally, each chapter focuses on a different artist or group of artists, allowing each to have a distinct vibe.

Send a portfolio link, please...

An example, but it's not in any way stylistically prescriptive. Look at album artwork for the PIxies. Surfer Rosa, Doolittle, Bossanova.

I'm not looking for anything specific. Just something that grabs me to establish a direction. It's a r'n'r book, so it needs to be edgy, energetic, captures the spirit of the artists and emotional connections that I'm writing about, etc.

Some more info on the book project:

NOT character-based. Not cartoon-y, not anime.

Looking for an artist to collaborate with on a rock and roll book project. Cover plus chapter heads, and whatever else we come up with.

Music fanaticism is a must. For the love of art and creativity...

Hey @briantylercohen.bsky.social @marcelias.bsky.social @glennkirschner.bsky.social Is there a creative way to force an impeachment of Dear Leader that isn’t on the collective radar yet?

Just wondering…When @williamshatner.bsky.social calls someone out for questionable facts, does he say, “Now, don’t be shittin’ the Shat.” Discuss. #shatnersays

To Democrats, and the progressive media. Please stop using the term “entitlements.” The conversation is about earned benefits. @cnn.com #msnbc @briantylercohen.bsky.social #davidpakman

Funny coincidence. I woke up this morning thinking that I should start a movement. Unfortunately, shirtless dancing is not exactly my strength.

Personally, I think that Merriam-Webster's 2023 Word of The Year is extremely disingenuous.
