Wishing everyone on #coso a wonderful day! I am sipping some iced mokka, listening to a good playlist and getting some work done. Life feels good today. Hope yours is good too!

Ok, so I have decided that project updates will go out exclusively through my newsletter. I will post some subscriber-only content as well. You will be the first to receive notifications on new projects, and at different milestones I will select people to receive free art. First milestone is 25 subscribers.

Maybe this is taboo but I am a writer and don’t read fiction very often. I am told that my writing reads like watching a tv show or a movie. #amwriting

I casually stopped drinking in 2018. I finally found a use for my old whisky glasses: a small evening glass of very strong cold brew.

My first story, a sci-fi novelette, came to life in a completely inexperienced three-week sleepless writing binge. I am proud of how it came out, against all odds, and I am grateful it led me to write more. But I have grown a lot as an author since then. I love writing. #writingcommunity

Iced mokka. My new coffee workflow. Check out red bay coffee if you haven’t yet! #caffeineclub

“Two Hearts” hand pressed woodblock print. I had heard somewhere that the “love/heart” shape came from two anatomical hearts connected to each other. ❤️ #art #cosoart #cosoartist

Been married for 7 years. So much has changed but our love has stayed the same. Here’s to many more good years shared. #coso #love

AirPod Pro’s are a really amazing product. I find the noise cancelling makes me feel less anxious. I was able to focus and think more clearly. Was very productive today. Wearing them changes your perception. Transparency mode seems to not let in all noise but only important frequencies. It is slightly surreal. Never thought headphones would have such a profound impact on me. I am very impressed.

Was getting a filling at my dentist one time and he insisted I could choose ANY artist as a pandora station. I said Aesop Rock. It was an awesome mix but a bit surreal to get drilled to. The first couple F’ bombs distracted him a bit but he eventually got his composure.

We all need to punch up more and down less. Give billionaires hell, not already marginalized people. I guarantee you the former has a larger negative impact on your life than the latter.

Happy 4th everyone. There are many reasons to not be celebrating right now, but hold your head up high and keep fighting. I am right here next to you. Good will prevail. Sending love to everyone who is hurting right now. #coso

Lyrics to my album are done! Next up I will be starting work on my new novel. In tandem I will be getting final vocal takes and finishing production on the album. Big goals this year and there is still a lot to do but I’ve been making great progress and I’ve got the energy. Let’s do this!
