This is the time of year where the sunlight has finally and completely broken out of winter’s thin eggshell.
The photos turning up in my contacts list on Flickr have been glowing recently. Some of my favorites (which can click to follow to the photographers’ accounts):
I’m in the middle of working my way through the Bite Me! shipping backlog, putting together material for potential future publishing projects, and preparing for a week in New York for MoCCA!
Not to mention picking up yet another sexy round of prescriptions in an attempt to make my post-viral breathing tube look less like this:
And more like this:
So I’m taking a pass on a page this week, which drives me nuts but seems responsible.
But, here we are, a new set of notes for pages 130-140! I really went kind of insane this time, trying to explain both wigs and early Protestant theology. I know that you have had burning questions about these things for a very long time. Consider them answered.
And, again, I’ll be at the MoCCA Art Festival in New York, June 6-7, tabling with Klio of SPQR Blues.
Ah yes! Time to remind everybody that I will be at MoCCA in New York this June 6 & 7! I’ll be exhibiting with (and courtesy of!) the dreadfully fantastic Klio, she who brings you SPQR Blues. Together we will be historytastic.
I’ll be there with some of the remaining stock of Bite Me! . Also with prints and buttons and stickers and whatever else I can cram into the suitcase that hasn’t sold out yet.
More news as we get closer to the show. In the meantime, more books go out in the mail every few days! It’s fun to watch the stack get skinnier. Had a bit of a bottleneck with the button packs (those little bastards are time-consuming), but that’s on the mend, so a big chunk more of the deluxe packages will be going out soon.
And now, back to your regularly scheduled pony.
The Rector’s past! Or a smidgen of it, from Luther’s perspective. But he seems to be breaking for the door – will Luther tackle him and ask more questions? Only the next page will tell!
Not much more out of me for the moment. I’m still feeling poorly, because I keep trying to get work done instead of getting fully well.
Thanks for your continued patience as I balance the demands of sending out the massive slew of book orders, completing all my other work obligations, and not dying. Especially that last one.
Notes for the last ten pages are all written and images are sourced – I just have to finish linking up all the darn pages, and then you people will know more about wigs and Reform theology than you ever thought possible! Oh the things you will know.
Over and out.
Current musical obsession: St.Vincent’s album “Actor”. It has gotten into my brain something fierce. It’s elegant and a bit creepy and full of interesting sounds and strange hooks.
I especially adore the video for the album’s single, Actor Out of Work:
St.Vincent – aka Annie Clark – is also a very distinctive-looking lady.
So I made an artist portrait. New Yorker arts pages, here I come. (Click for full-size.)
