I wrote the following as a Facebook status:
The first stop today was a giant hulking wreck of a sycamore that hadn't even been cut yet. It was every bit of forty foot long and six foot around and it was all wet and green, green as a garden snake and vibrantly mottled like the way a sycamore does. Flinging various dismembered parts of it frightened me a little, like we were handling the carcass of a brontosaurus. I do believe I told it I was sorry that it had died.
To which my friend John Holland responded that he was expecting a "memoir of my time on the back of that truck" and that he was "dead effing serious." So I told him okay, I would do it.
So yeah, there you go. I'm going to try and write a book now and maybe even get it published. I'll keep you posted. Thanks for staying with me.

NoLA Love pt. 2
"Benefactors"
"Fig.17-Stonewall Jackson"
"SelfPortrait" & "Fig.18-Stone Mountain"
Other pictures of these drawings can be found here and here. I have not yet taken pictures of the one with my parents on the elephant, I essentially "mostly" finished it up and then stuffed it in the tube so that it could make it on time for the show. Also Thank you Mrs. 21K for the Link!

NoLA Front

Last week I mailed down five drawings rolled up in a giant cardboard tube I found in an alley. Tuesday Ruth mailed down twenty small chapbooks made up of writing excerpted from here.
