create

I've got two new creative projects going (which may end next week when classes start back). I'm writing a short novel for kids. I write one or two pages a day and Braden critiques them when he gets home from school. I'm also re-purposing some furniture to be our organizational bail-out for all our papers lying around the house.

First, I got three night stands. One I already "owned" (it was mine growing up). I bought the other two. Two of the three worked close to perfect. The idea is to stack all three on top of one another to create a part-bookcase, part-filing cabinet.

I'll post more pictures as things develop and may post my rough draft chapters if anyone is interested.

FB and art

My uncle Dargan and I created a page on Facebook to promote his artwork. It's been a great kick in the butt for me. I even worked on a new story today (with the help of Braden, my editor). It's funny how when we help one person succeed, it moves us forward as well.
