And today in writing, I also had a lot happen.

In big news, I am the Winner of the Campfire Tales April 2026 Contest from Campfire Publishing's Smoke Signals newsletter! You can read my winning story Interview with a Zombie here.

My Train poem appeared in the May 2026 issue of Instant Noodles: Planes Boats Cars Trains. Read here.

Underwater Garden and the Metaworker

Lots happening today. Everything is hitting at once. So here are some things I am doing art wise.

My In the Garden photograph from Botanica was included in The Metaworker. Check it out here. 

I also hung my art at Metropolitan Coffee in Hutchinson, KS again. The show will be up for the month of May. I am offering these works at severely discounted prices as I think I am going to retire this series soon, so check it out while you still can. Scroll down to see details of the show.
