I know that you all are getting tons and tons of emails asking for donations before midnight today. I’m going to offer my suggestions if you have some money burning a hole in your bank account and you want to make a contribution (large or small) to support people and causes I think are awesome.
In no particular order. . .

This is exactly what I needed today.

Yep. A complete and utter jerk.
I have a lot of topics bouncing around that I want to write about – some personal, some random – but I’ve lost my ability to just get into the flow. I’m going to stop trying to force it and just see what happens. Maybe I’ll even resort to pen and paper if inspiration strikes.
Regardless, here’s hoping this goes away soon and I get my writing mojo back.
Until then – have a happy holiday, travel safe, and happy new year!
P.S. Don’t forget. . .

It should shock no one that I have a bunch of creative projects around my house that are in varying states of completion. I was going to work on things this spring/summer, but then I said yes to not one, but two, candidates so was somewhat busy until November 5. Now those campaigns are over and I have no others on my radar (more on that later) and I have ALL THE FREE TIME!
This means I can release my creativity!
In no particular order, here’s my creative to do list for the next few months:
- Sort through Vietnam photos. (I took over 8000, can you blame me for putting this task off?)
- Organize my photos – including an online portfolio
- Frame all of the things sitting in my home office closet waiting to get framed
- Write more things that aren’t for work
I can’t wait to be able to mark these things as done and have more art in my home and office. Not to mention the personal benefits that come from embarking on creative tasks – if I can’t be creative, everything else suffers.
Anyone willing to help keep me honest on this? Do you have a creative project of your own that you want to accomplish and maybe we can be project buddies?
