Ngaroa Unchained

Decided that Ngaroa from the Resonance series will go on the World Fantasy Convention cards. A less-cranky Ngaroa on a Silver Halide photo-print will be in the Art Show.

Assistive Devices for the Blogging-Impaired

The Twitter and Facebook apps worked well enough to help keep me in contact with you that I’d like to try this with the blog.

This week I’m writing the content for our iOS app, preparing the art for the World Fantasy Convention, and trying to keep everything from drowning the writing.

“How to Train Your Dragon” for Hugo award

I just voted for “How to Train Your Dragon” in “Dramatic Presentation–Long Form” for the Hugo Award, given at RENovation Worldcon next month.

I did an extensive study of that movie last year and what I learned took the quality of my fractal art up about ten notches, so it’s the least I can do (at least without turning into a squealing fangirl, and nobody wants that).
