I have been setting the wheels in motion toward starting a small press where I publish speculative fiction in e-book and possibly print formats. The first effort will be a short story anthology with the unlikely title of The Lost Librarian’s Grave. The collection will feature stories of “doom, sorcery and premature burial,” which are…

The Summer Solstice Painting Challenge
It is time for the next painting challenge with the second annual “Paint the Crap You Already Own!” painting challenge just ended. So I thought I’d announce a May-June challenge before I get started with the “Paint the Crap You Already Own!” round-up. For this challenge, I’m looking for pictures of whatever single model you think…

“Neglected But Not Forgotten” Painting Challenge Round-up (March 2021)
The challenge for March was for people to dig into their pile of models and paint something they had owned for at least a year.

Work Outs: April 4 – 10, 2021 (Golf Ball Spider)
I’ve been posting pictures of salamanders, slugs, scorpions, and of course spiders off and on and of these worthy, little critters my favorites (I don’t know why) are spiders.

Work Outs: March 28 – April 3, 2021 (Hoover Stew)
We saw this recipe for Hoover Stew from The Wolfe Pit and I thought it might be amusing to make a pot of it. As chance would have it I had all of the ingredients on hand, including some plant-based hot dogs, since my husband has been eating plant-based for quite some time now. Apparently…

Planted Some of our Accountant’s “Giant Green Plants”*

The proper ablutions were made, rituals conducted, precedents consulted, and paper clips numbered. Requisite forms, charts and tables were anointed with holy oils and two teardrops shed by…
