Don’t let best be the enemy of good.

Tonight's been a fun evening. I see BB as very much a whole and I want all aspects of it - the writing, the art, the cover, even the font I've written it in - to say something about BB, the world he lives in, and the stories I want to tell.

Same old rain


Waiting Out the Rain

Rain over the rainbow


It came after a week of rain.


After she driven home through the rain, watched the rain come across fields.

And your voice can't be beat!

And sit in our seat
And have a bite to eat.
Perhaps a sandwich of lettuce and meat
