How to Recover & Recharge from Creative Burnout
My November article is up on Collective Creatives… Creative types sometimes go through dry spells, times where nothing they create works, if they even can bring themselves to create.

Crowned… another new journal for sale.
Aaaand… yet another journal added to the shop. This one was very fun to make. It’s another painted cover journal, I used red as a base and some watered-down white to make some neat splashy effects. I’ll definitely use those techniques again.

Shop Opening & some other news
I finally broke down and opened up an Etsy Shop. I’ve been trying desperately for the past 3 months to get my own site up and running but after three different ecommerce platforms, failing checkouts and difficult SSL hookups, I decided to launch an Etsy Shop until I can work out all the kinks. As [...]
