But Still No Harry

Looking for my copy of Feast of Snakes. I know it was on the shelf in the “dining room” (read: bachelor library) of my old house. So I took a chance on this box, one of many, many, many still in the pole barn after the move five years ago.

Had to seal the box back up and get back to the typing. Will look for Harry again another time.

Recent Performance Photos

Photographer Dick Ainsworth took some photos of my recent shows in Mineral Point (with the band) and in Stoughton (solo monologue).

All from my Grandma’s collection.

Revision: my favorite stage in the writing process. This is when the obsessive-compulsive tendencies that frustrate me to the edge of madness throughout the rest of the process (and daily life itself) suddenly become an asset. This is the inky equivalent of a musician tinkering with the mix.
