Various and Sundry

In the April Full Of Crow, Richard Hunt, Artist, Ponders Flash Fiction, by Larry Strattner. I was amused, impressed, and read it thrice.

King Triton, a piece I wrote for the Writer's Art contest on DA, received first place! I found the theme of the contest inspiring: Atlantis, "one day of the year, the inhabitants of that place can make contact with us..." A lot of readers found it romantic. In retrospect, I suppose it is, though I didn't originally intend that.

I was just espousing the virtues of Steampunk artist, Myke Amend, when I decided to check out a SteamCon event he's going to this month.

It's in my hometown.

Now I've got to go. Not just to meet him, but to see... everything! Unfortunately, I have no costume, and no time or money to get/make one before the show. I'll see what I can throw together, but if not, B and I will just go for the atmosphere.

When Myke's site comes back up (server issues), please note that he is offering commissions to off-set the cost of the convention.
