junkyard moon– back cover sketch
It’s hard to believe that it’s only been five days since the roofers were here and I completely transformed my upcoming book, Junkyard Moon, by reimagining it in a square format. It works, trust me, and I have the photographs … Continue reading
at the movies– now you see me
This, my friends, is a movie. It is not a sequel to anything. It is not a reboot. It isn’t based on a book, a short story, an ad campaign or a long-cancelled television series. It isn’t a reimagining of … Continue reading
orbital notebook
More found art, or perhaps that should be found and lost and found again art. Or just an entry from a rediscovered notebook, originally written down sometime in early 1998. I actually remember taking this note; it was during a … Continue reading

And so it begins. The summer blockbuster season has all the fans of junk cinema in its well padded, popcorn-scented grip, where we will remain in air conditioned comfort until fall comes. Grab your 3D glasses, turn off your phone, … Continue reading
two things at target
Time to buy two things at Target: two paper hats, two seasons of “Archer” on DVD, two cans of refried beans. And, yes, they really are paper hats. Or so says the tag. A better everyday summer “straw” cannot be … Continue reading
animals shake themselves
Film at 11– or whenever you want to watch it, really. You almost certainly know how cool it is when a wet dog shakes and all the water goes flying off. (Well, about 70% of the water, anyway.) Yes, it’s … Continue reading
how to corner: corned beef
Like corned beef? Hate cooking it? Simmer it too long and it’s tasteless and falls to shreds, simmer it too briefly and it’s tough as leather. Boil it and it’s unspeakable. Our wonderful butcher shop pickles its own briskets and … Continue reading
