 It's now 22 years since I've started my journaling efforts. During that time I would
often make log entries on park benches, in coffee shops ...even in stripper bars.
I've stood out exposed to the public while sketching or writing.
Often, especially in the early days, I hated this -people gawking at what I was doing.
But as I became accustomed to people looking over my shoulder while
working I also got more comfortable. I now continue my efforts chronicaling life as I get to observe it,
only now ~with my online edition~ I'm welcoming the looks over the shoulder. What you'll find here will include both older works and essays as well as things
just completed. At times, this site may exhibit some essays written or illustrations,
collage, calligraphy or photography I've produced during the years
I've been keeping this project going. I was trained as a typesetter when everything was
set in metal; monotype and linotype were the standards when I first learned my trade.
In a sense, this is also yet another natural progression from hot type,
where I first started in graphics.
In the initial training one also learned of the importance of the role of printer; for
the printer was responsible for the transfer of ideas from one person to another.Nowadays the equipment is a lot easier to handle, but the subject matter still as weighty as then ...and printers ~dispensers of information and ideas~ still have every much as a responsibility as ever. It's regrettable that so few entrusted with this charge live up to it. But we can start now. I hope that what you find here (pages, contents and links) to be educational,
entertaining, thought provoking, troubling at times, interesting and ...when
suitable ~filling.
