A few of mine Is doodling a dying art? With the proliferation of iPads, smart phones and other personal electronic devices, we spend less and less time with a pen or pencil (or in my case, a crayon) in hand. Sit in on any business meeting and at least one person will be [...] 
Come on, throw me the ball! Just recently I changed my answer to that ubiquitous networking question, “What do you do?” My new answer, “Play”. I haven’t had many chances to use it yet. So far the reaction has been a slightly startled pause, a smile and an invitation to tell the questioner [...] 
The confluence of serendipity and synchronicity have launched me on a new trajectory. Hmmm – the trajectory isn’t really new.

Creating Adventures means several things. Depending on how you accent the words it has to do with finding adventures – keeping life fresh, new and [...] 
No matter how long I procrastinate, this thing isn’t going to start itself. Damn! I’ve spent hours messing with themes, tweaking the colors, fiddling with pictures and generally avoiding actually writing something. I still haven’t identified a niche, discovered my voice, mapped out my next 5 posts or done any of the other things [...] |
