A studio glimpse + a way cool anthology

Posted on | July 28, 2010 | 9 Comments

Here are a couple snapshots from photo booth earlier when T. interrupted me unexpectedly. I had just finished this update. I often use photo booth for editing actually. I read to myself out loud, then play it back, while following along and making changes. It helps me focus on the text, especially if I’ve been working on a piece for a while. I also hear the little things that I slip in as I speak; the subtle nuance of an added word, a phrase, an emphasis. I like catching that ephemera. Especially for this book, where the pieces are almost prose poems, and images–both painted and imagined, mean as much as the words.

Mostly, I wanted to share this with you tonight ~ three of my pieces will be published in Milk & Ink this winter. I am so honored to be among this group of incredible authors. Go take a peak at the Facebook page…there are some profound, delightful, heartbreaking and wonderful stories being shared over there. And the very best part? All the proceeds of the book will be going to the charity, Mama Hope supporting women and children in Africa. Awesome, right?

    I love your knee in the photos. I sit the same way. I think it’s impossible for me to sit with both feet flat on the floor.

    I am really excited about the anthology! I love all of the little anecdotes on Facebook. Good stuff! I also can’t really sit like a lady, um…ever.

    What a fun way to use Photobooth. It’s also great as a mirror – and for taking a photo of the back of one’s head!
