No, this has nothing to do with those books or those movies… but I’m all for the little boost in web traffic the title may attract, especially after such a long hiatus in my posting. Actually, it’s the title of an Elliott Smith tune that used to be in heavy rotation on my iPod some years ago. It managed to resurface this weekend, and I thought of its lyrics while spacing out at Dillon Beach, half-attempting to keep up with the sky’s constantly shifting palette in this sketch… which I eventually gave up on, thus that particular line from the song at the bottom of the page.

I suppose I should confess to avoiding a couple other things besides sunsets -which, actually, I did watch, and it was all fiery red and perfect. Things like this blog and my comic. It’s probably not advisable in a professional sense to admit such neglect (since this blog serves a primary/secondary purpose as my portfolio - that is, a solicitation of my professional creative services), but I think it’s more important to be honest with those of you who have been following me here for some time rather than those who just happened to stop by (no offense to fans of that other thing who popped in by accident).

I’ve been busy, but I’ve also been distracted… but I’m moving on and you’ll be seeing a lot more of me in the near future. Things are cookin’, gnome sang? Thanks for checking in from time to time anyway… or at least keeping me in your subscriptions list or what have you. It’s a new decade, a new year, and soon, a new day.
