I’ll be speaking about my book, A is for Elsewhere, at the Minnesota Center for Book Arts tomorrow evening in front of Craig Eliason‘s “Type Tuesday” group. Everyone is welcome. Gathering around 6 in the coffee shop area, presentation at 7. Please join us!  

Year-end lists abound, but when Andy Sturdevant asked me to carve out a little bit of the “Heavy 100” for Salon Saloon’s “The 2012 Show” a few things leaped immediately to mind. The first, of course, was Brian Beatty’s beard. 2012 was definitely its best year ever. (And 2013 bodes well.) Another was Andy DuCett’s tour-de-force exhibit “Why WeContinue reading “2012 Was the Best…”

I’ll be a guest on Salon Saloon again tonight for “The 2012 Show.” I’m appearing on the 10 p.m. segment, and am very excited to be among the great guests lined up for the evening. I just can’t wait to take the stage at BLB and ring out 2012 with my picks for the “HeavyContinue reading “Salon Saloon, The 2012 Show!!”

    The trial proof of A is for Elsewhere arrived today. Blurb exceeded my expectations. The first edition of 26 is available now.  

‎”A is for Elsewhere” is coming together…the book is ordered and should be here soon if Obama wins. If Romney wins, I’m assuming the mail will suddenly cease, so we’ll see. For now, here’s an update: http://www.goelsewhere.org/a-is-for-elsewhere/

  Here are some random shots from around Greensboro and Winston-Salem, North Carolina. Film, digital, inside, outside. It’s a wonderful state, and I’m a little sad to be heading back home in a few more days…  

  I’m currently a resident artist at Elsewhere, a living museum set in a former thrift store in downtown Greensboro, North Carolina. This is an amazing place with an incredible history, an enviable present, and a great future. Check out their website and if you’re an artist I encourage you to apply here. I’ve been hereContinue reading “Elsewhere…”

    Here are a few photos I took yesterday in Ogilvie, Minnesota, where I went for a wedding. (Including a pic of the newlyweds.)
