The new issue of F-Stop Magazine is now online. http://www.fstopmagazine.com/
I am honored to have had two images selected to appear in the Group Exhibit section of the site. http://www.fstopmagazine.com/groupexhibit.html
It was a delight to chance upon the website of Damaris Pierce, an artist based in Asheville, North Carolina. In 2007, she launched a project that encourages people to show their thanks, literally, on a postcard. Postcards are mailed to Ms. Pierce who then posts them on the website: http://www.iamthankful.com/postcards
I was drawn in by the idea of postcards (I’m a paper fanatic) but the site has many wonderful exercises like an online Gratitude Journal, free e-cards and other resources. Check it out. My goal is to create and mail at least one postcard!

This blog is a place where I can explore all those things that inspire me to be creative in my writing and in my photography. Nature is a major inspiration, and so are the friends and family around me. They have helped me expand my appreciation of the world and of different types of creative expression. I’ve decided to give them space on my blog as a venue to share their words and images with you. I hope that you enjoy. The first post should be up by June 15th. Stay tuned!

My love affair with Dover Little Books began with stickers. Over the years I have purchased 4-page booklets of butterflies, dragons, frogs, and even Victorian kittens. Eventually I branched out to buy art stickers and postcard booklets as a way of introducing myself and young friends to fine art from around the world. The cost: $1.50 each. My most recent $3 splurge:
If you can’t find Dover little books in your local bookstore or stationary shop, the Dover website is worth a visit, especially the Books Under $10 page.
