Taking the Fun Out of It

Why bother with yet another web site redesign and blog relaunch? I'm glad you asked Senator.

I obsess. My mind races, jumping from idea to idea. People size me up and see that some percentage of my mental capacity is elsewhere at all times. I write things down on tiny scraps of paper. I wake up with a start in the middle of the night. I find hidden details in things that may or may not actually be there. I analyze and abstract until all the joy is gone. I can't stop until it is all out of my head.

If this all sounds startlingly similar to the inner monologue of some kind of OCD suffering drug addict, well, that's pretty telling, isn't it? My creative life is pretty much an addiction. A wonderful, healthy addiction. And I'm committed to using this site to feed the beast. Creating more, sharing more, and talking more about what inspires me.

Doesn't it feel shiny and new around here? It smells a lot nicer, that's for sure.
