I'm working on something. I should be working on something else or on another something else, but I'm not. I'm working on this something. And that's what I'll be doing today and tomorrow and, I guess, we'll see. You could say I've resurrected something--although it's more to do with feet than brains.
Talking of resurrected things. The wonderful
Arkham Tales--the magazine that refused to die--has just released issue seven. It features fiction from
Aaron Polson,
Leah Clarke and Robert Masterson, amongst others. And it's only $1.99.
THE END. THE END. THE END. THE END. THE END. THE END. THE END. THE END. THE END. THE END. THE END. THE END. THE END. THE END. THE END. THE END. THE END. THE END. THE END. THE END. THE END. THE END. THE END. THE END. THE END. THE END. THE END. THE END. THE END... Okay, you get my drift.
Without seeming too like Jack Torrance in The Shining, ie 'All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy', I've typed those immortal words... Yep, you guessed it. THE END. The Poisoned Apple is finished. Or Lily Sunday & The Dead Feet is done. It all depends on which title I go with. Though there is another similar title out there 'The Poison Apples', and I am considering and unconsidering etc etc etc changing my title, I decided one day on the bus travelling to work that I wanted to write a book called 'The Poisoned Apple' and now that I have, well I'm loathe to let the title go.
Now I am off to fight evil more frightening than a hungry mob of zombies - that darn synopsis.

There are some 'little stowaways' in the back of this cab.
This illustration is from a story that I wrote. Yes, yet another project, but I like working that way--having several projects going at once. If one starts losing steam, I switch to another. Then when I get back to the first, it seems fresh again.
Things haven't gotten much better forBessie. But she will keep trying I am sure....stay tuned.
This is the first complete image in a new children's picture book I'm working on with local author Patricia Gitersos. It's a very sweet story about a little brown cow who does odd and wonderful things. Focusing on a signature colour each page (this time the red boat) other colours will be a little more muted and soft. It's my first assignment in watercolour.
Pastel drawing, with the background and grass done in photoshop.

Okay, I am two days early but on Sunday, August 19, it will be the the 151st anniversary of Condensed Milk. To celebrate this product which everyone under-appreciates we searched Oxford Reference Online and found this great profile of the Borden company in The Oxford Encyclopedia of Food and Drink in America. Be sure to read the whole thing to find some neat tidbits about Elsie The Cow.
At one time the Borden company was America’s largest dairy business. Gail Borden Jr., the founder of the Borden Condensed Milk Company, was born in Norwich, New York, in 1801. He died in 1874, leaving behind a thriving business, two sons, and a host of inventions and patents. (more…)

I was hooked from the word "dadblamed."
There's more, of course. I mean, how often do you run across picture books about Civil War cows? And this cow's a beaut. She follows her owner as he enlists, she follows him onto the railroad car taking his regiment into battle, getting in the way and giving milk as she goes. She
Arkham Tales is very wise to take on Mr. Polson....
...Methinks I should be working on something too. Damn blogging!
I know I should be working on something as well, I am just a little confused as to what is at the moment.
I'm too busy cleaning to do something else. That's the weekend for you--ack!
Arkham has the best covers and content.
Oooh mysterious!
I'm so glad Arkham is back :D
Very wise indeed, Alan
Jamie, at the end of a long day, I'm feeling like that.
Rebecca, what's cleaning?
Me too, Katey
I've opened up a document to work on, does that count as writing?
I'm glad Arkham Tales is still around! Too many magazines have disappeared lately.
Love the cover : )
That Aaron Polson seems to get around, huh?...
Kate, in my world - yes.
Nat, me too.
Barry, he really does.
Nice. I actually just submitted something to them. $1.99 sure is a good price.
Hey. That's me.
(Wait...what did Barry say?)
I don't know how you wandered onto my blog. It's not as if I'm your fan club president or anything.
