The elusive red dot

While editing audio this morning, I realized that another irritating thing I was always cleaning up is also not from the microphone, but is either me (most likely) or from processing (not as likely). So, more good information. Now I just need time to research all these things to find out how to correct. If … Continue reading The elusive red dot

The abstract landscape

I had this one started ACEO card tonight that I really wanted to finish. It was a beautiful abstract landscape as if it were set at night. I could see branches and rocks and even areas were vines were growing. I was so afraid to touch it, scared that I might mess it up. But … Continue reading The abstract landscape

Results of recorded audio

With the audio now recorded and the cover nearly ready, I thought it might be a good idea to work on the interior for the first Fenrir’s Tales I’m going to release (with luck, it’ll be done soon). Speaking of the audio since I did it yesterday, it is mastering up beautifully. Better yet, because … Continue reading Results of recorded audio

Testing, always testing

I could have been finishing my current work-in-process today, but no, I was in my audio booth all day. Not recording either. Well, unless you count me trying to cut out Merlin’s snoring because he was interrupting my room noise and getting settings dialed in. I was testing a microphone today, which meant I had … Continue reading Testing, always testing

See how Temmy exercises

Worked on editing tonight. It was about all I had time and energy for this evening. I did get writing done today. I’m getting close to the end of my newest work-in-process and I’m sure there are some people out there who are excited for it. It’s not quite what I intended or thought it … Continue reading See how Temmy exercises

Charging the home stretch

I just left 3rd base and I’m running for home. I have now completed more than 75 ACEO cards for my Make 100 Kickstarter campaign. It’s splendid to be nearly done with the painting. I still have the challenge of creating the ebook with all the images, but tackle that in time. Onward! Another great … Continue reading Charging the home stretch

Running exhausted

Sorry, it’s going to be another quick blog tonight. I got off work about half-an-hour ago and got some dinner in me before sitting down to write. No painting is going to get done tonight. Bummer. Tomorrow I have to leave early to go to town for an appointment. I’m really hoping my long days … Continue reading Running exhausted

More baby steps needed

There are two things I want to do more of. Okay, writing and painting are something I always want to do more of, but those two things aren’t it. As little as I get done with them, it is still something every day. No, this is something I’d like to do every day as well … Continue reading More baby steps needed

Found!

I forgot to continue the timer story! The same day that I woke to my timer going off, just as soon as I got into bed that night, the alarm started going off again. I’m serious! I was about to get up when I heard Bella hiss and then the heavy feet of Temmy landing … Continue reading Found!

Recovering to run

I have been doing a lot of mindset work today and really digging into some beliefs I’ve held onto for a long time. I had a good session with my creativity coach on Friday, but it’s brought up a lot of these beliefs. Now I must do the work of weeding through them. I’m trying … Continue reading Recovering to run
