Hey, if you’re reading this in a feed reader click on the link and come see my new theme!
Yeah, I’m a restless soul, always looking for change and variety. I suffer from wanderlust, and I can never be happy with the same blogskin for more than a few months. This new version of Bookworm has bright colors, a one hundred percent liquid layout AND rounded corners (requiring a little extra markup but who cares), and an old-fashioned sidebar with everthing in it. Although I do prefer the cleaner look of blogs that have links & archives tucked away on separate pages, or sidebars down on the bottom, I’ve reluctantly come to the conclusion that it really is better to have that stuff where people can see it right away. (Do you agree? Disagree?)

About a year ago, my friend Leland asked me if he could borrow my scanner. He had written a children’s story, he explained, and his then-11yo son Mekiah had illustrated it. He wanted to scan the pictures so that he could get the book printed. A bit more discussion, and the next thing I knew, can I borrow your scanner had turned into will you design my book.

Time for a new look, eh? The old one was starting to feel dingy and claustrophobic. It still needs a few tweaks, so I hope you’ll bear with me for a day or two until the dust settles.
In honor of the new theme I thought it would be fun to take a trip down memory lane, for those of you who have been reading this since the beginning (hi, Mom). And if you haven’t, maybe you’d like to see the old designs anyway.

I had the devil of a time keeping this photography website under wraps while I was working on it. Leslie’s work is simply stunning, and I am so excited to share it with you now that we’ve gone “live.” Here’s a screenshot showing a single photo, but do visit the site to see the whole show.

Golly gee, where does the time go? It’s been more than a month since I last blogged or visited others. A busy month with lots of work, assorted stomach and upper respiratory ailments, and the holiday fest that includes Hanukah, Christmas, and a bunch of birthdays. Including mine. Lordy, Lordy, now I’m, uh, thirty-nine and four quarters. :)

My poor neglected little blog! I thought I better pop in and dust it off a little before it gets completely forgotten. I never mean to take such long breaks from blogging. I’ve just been so busy!

The night before last I had a very vivid dream featuring one of my favorite clients. No, we’ve never met in person, but we’ve talked on the phone and I’ve seen her photo, and she was very present and very realistic in my dream. So, anyway, I dreamed that my job was to be in charge of her bassoon — her bassoon whose appraisal value was THREE MILLION DOLLARS. And I had the bassoon in this cheap hotel room along with all three kids, who were tearing the place apart, and they scratched the bassoon a couple of times and Kristy was getting rightfully pissed off and it was very stressful.
