Where Am I?

Those of you who may be missing my oh-so-wonderful creativity need to check out Simpson/Lynch Studios: Pleasantview, the blog I share with my writing partner, Skip Simpson. It's the continuing story of two main characters, the "Skipster" and the "Foxster" (loosely based on Skip and myself), and features an ever-growing supporting cast.

And it's some of the most imaginative stuff I've ever done in my life.

Right now, Skip and I are co-ordinating an interactive internet "event" on that blog, the grand opening of Kewl Beanz!, a coffeehouse & restaurant & nightclub. This event will last all day Tuesday, and will not only demand several posts from our joint blog, but also interact with several other wonderful Blogger-bloggers. I'll even be commenting wherever necessary in character as "the Foxster," for one day only!

You're invited to either participate (by signing up via the link below) or to "watch from a distance," as it were.

Thanks for your time. That is all.

What's New... Elsewhere?

By now, I'm sure most -- if not all -- of you have given up on my ever finishing Old Home Week, the multi-parter I began last October. Well, I will be finishing it, but I want to wait until I have time to devote to it, which frankly, won't be for a couple of months or more. (At that point, I'll probably re-post the first three segments.)

Regular readers know that I've been dealing with a lot of crap in the real world lately, so I'm not going to dwell on that right now. And when I have had time to devote to blogging, I've been sticking to shorter posts (for me, that is) here, and to the plotting/writing sessions for Simpson/Lynch Studios: Pleasantview, the blog I share with my once-and-future writing partner, Skip Simpson. (Skip also has a solo blog, Skip's Stuff, by the way!)

If you're not reading Simpson/Lynch Studios: Pleasantview, you're missing out on some of the most creative stuff I -- and by "I," I really mean "we," in this case -- have done! The blog started out as a place to talk about our collaborative projects, past and present, but has proven to have a life of its own. It's transformed into a soap opera of sorts, featuring storylines concerning "The Skipster" and "The Foxster" -- younger-looking, somewhat idealized, incredibly successful and rich versions of Skip and myself! -- as well as a great supporting cast.

I want to announce an upcoming internet crossover "event," the Grand Opening of the Kewl Beanz!^TM coffeehouse on January 26th! But Kewl Beanz!^TM is hardly "just" a coffeehouse; the team of Skipster and Foxster never do anything in a small way!

We're hoping that plenty of Blogger-bloggers sign up to participate. Those who don't will hopefully still enjoy reading our posts on the SLP site.

So, as the slogan goes, "Be There Or Be Square!"

Thanks for your time.
