Music: do you sleep at night? - the apex beat
mmm.. summer vacation. it doesn't get much better than this. i keep waking up thinking, well. what new crap is in store for me today? and then i look at the clock and it's like 9:30 on monday. so i read a book.
i strongly recommend you check out some of the books mentioned in my profile, especially if you have writer's block. or artist's block. whatever you call it. the spiderwick's field guide has some seriously good illustrations in it, and the brian froud is just brian froud, what more can be said?
if you want, you can look at my gallery on devart, or on elfwood. they have tons more art up than there is here. if you can find me on either one, then.. kudos to you.
