I based the Ashe Girls' relationship on my own with my two first cousins, Kim and Tracie. Kim was one year older than me, Tracie a year younger. We were more like siblings growing up. Obviously, I was in the place of Jessie.
Kim died this morning.
That's pretty much all I can say.

Hello, all you groovy hep cats. I have done so much for so long with so little, I am now qualified to do anything with nothing. Hey, Elon! I challenge you to a software contest. I double dog dare you! In other words, I got Skyrim working. Why am I spending so much time futzing with a stupid game? Well, you remember that journal I posted a while back? About helping me not see making money as a heartless, mercenary, hack thing? Well, fun videos about a game do eventually make money. That's my game of choice, because it's fun and I can spin comedy around it. Although, I am sorely tempted to buy Stellar Blade and kick some Sweet Babies right to Mars. Jiggle physics! I had no idea setting up a modded game was like the love child of Tetris, a Rubik's Cube, and junior level logic class (with a side order of rhetoric thrown in for flavor). It is. And I finally got it working without CTD every five minutes. By tomorrow afternoon, I'll be ready to make videos, and have fun. And get
Commission Shop Is Open!
Hello, all you groovy hep cats! Well, I am open for commissions. Right now, my mind is blank when it comes to image and story ideas. But I want to do things! So, why not do YOUR ideas. I will take up to Ten for the month of March. Let's see where that goes. Comment here if you want to hire me, and I'll add your name to the list. Then, send me a note with your idea and we'll talk about it. Please give me 72 hours to finish your commission. That darn arrhythmia and heart procedure took more out of me than I expected, and I'm still getting back on my feet. But it's better than having the stroke I was about to have.

Favorite Environments
Hello, all you groovy hep cats! @Dangerguy01 recently wrote about his favorite (or favourite) environments. Check it out here: That's a great subject! Not only do we learn about each other's artistic processes, but we get tips for sets we don't know about. So, here are some of mine. My philosophy for writing a story is the environment is a character. I want the reader to not just see it in his or her mind, but hear it, smell it, and feel it. That further engages the reader's emotional sense. I have the same philosophy with a render. Fortunately, it's much easier in 3D, which visually is a still from a movie, than the more abstract panel in a comic book or painting. Back in my Reality days (good God, that was ten years ago!), I was a fanatic about the set. I'd spend an entire week constructing a set of Homeric proportions and Parisian grandeur, only to realize it swallowed the story and characters, and rip it all out and rebuild it. That taught me to build the set after I
Help Out an Old Fart!
I consider most of you my friends. Meaning, you would be welcome crossing my threshold, which is a rare occasion. So, when I ask you to help me out here, I trust you. Here's the problem. I'm short circuiting myself financially. It keeps me from making commissions. It keeps me from positioning my YouTube videos for monetization. It keeps me from making a profit on the Aura novel, and likely keeps me from writing the next one(s). The problem? I AM AN EFFETE SNOB! The mere idea of making money doing something I love makes me feel like a mercenary, a sellout, a bloody HACK! In my mind, I know that's batshit crazy. There is nothing wrong with finding financial security doing what you love. It's the American dream, after all. One of the best job advice books I read was Do What You Love, the Money Will Follow. Heck, even Cormack McCarthy stopped living in his car and moved into an apartment (granted, it was after Oprah Winfrey dragged him kicking and screaming into the spotlight). If a
