I’ve got one day left of my “365 Days of Neff” project, my daily self-portrait thingamajig. After thinking about it and asking for input, I’ve decided that for 2012, I’m going to write a poem a day, at least one page in length. I’ll be handwriting them in a notebook (I hate writing prose by [...]

We’re almost 3/4 of the way through the year. I can see the end of my “365 Days of Neff” photography project. I’ve really enjoyed doing it, and I feel it’s made a real impact on my life, helping pump up my self-esteem and remind myself that I really can be consistently creative and productive. [...]

I beat myself up a lot (both privately and in public) for not being more creative on a regular basis. But I just posted my 141st self-portrait of the year. 141 days in a row of photographs. I haven’t missed a single day. Ease up on yourself, boyo. You’re doing better than you think you [...]

I really think Community is one of the best shows on TV right now, for a variety of reasons. Last week’s episode, “Advanced Dungeons and Dragons,” was one of the best of the best. It was hilariously funny, but also very touching, and it was more accurate in the way it portrayed people playing Dungeons [...]

Inspired by some posts by comics writer Cullen Bunn, Orrin Grey posted a pic of a comics cover from when he was a kid that has provided him with inspiration. I think that’s a really nifty idea, so I’m posting (with no comment on why or how or what) a comics cover that influenced me [...]

I’ve loved Tony DiTerlizzi‘s art since I first saw it in Planescape and Changeling books. His picture books Jimmy Zangwow’s Out-of-This-World Moon-Pie Adventure and Ted are two of my favorite children’s books. Plus, we were both born in California in 1969 and seem to have similar influences, so…I’m a fan. But, oh boy, do I [...]

Q: Josh, why are you excited to start your new job? A: Because, this is the kind of atmosphere I’ll be working in. How could I not be excited?

Longtime goblin-friend Jennifer R. tipped me off to this fantastic library art project: cARTalog. Take a stroll through the images. They’re great! I love this!
