Super excited to be reading at the Rosetta / LEVEL Studios annual kickoff party tonight.
I’m currently in Monterey getting ready for my turn at sound check.
Wish me luck!
Also, I’ll be the featured reader at the Nautical Bean open reading on Chorro Street in SLO. 7 pm Saturday, February 4th.
I went to the Monterey Bay Aquarium this weekend with my wife, and snapped a few great shots. Check out my Flickr account for a few more.

Take a look at other images from the day at my flickr photostream.
Another fun macro shot at a winery in Edna. This one was fun since it was so windy, I could barely control anything about this shot.
Took this photo during a LEVEL photo excursion out in Edna. The iPhone takes really great macro shots. The sun through the leaf gave a ton of great detail.
This is a neat and inspiring e-book designed by Emily Austin. Neat layout of a poem by Taylor Mali.
See it in motion at Emily Austin’s Behance profile.
It’s starting to really bug me when people say they’re not creative enough. When people say that, I hear “I’m too lazy” or “I’m too afraid of what others think of me.”
Get over it! If you want to be creative, just BE CREATIVE. Try things and learn. Either be comfortable with yourself, or pick a more appropriate excuse.
End of rant. Thank you.
