Make a Little Birdhouse
A collaborative project! Alison painted and collaged this birdhouse, and I drew birds on the sides. I’ll draw on the roof too, I think, but here it is so far.

Last weekend, Alison and I were at the wedding of my friends Paul and Heather (you may know Paul as Antonio in the Merchant of Venice). It was a beautiful weekend, and we wandered around Northampton, where Alison went to school (Smith), and Greenfield and Montague, where a bunch of my folksy-dancin’ friends live.
Here are a couple of drawings from the Smith College plant house.

Finished the first round of edits on the Odyssey layout. I think it’s pretty solid, though I’m still wrestling a bit with the last couple of pages. The original ending is abrupt, and I’m trying to make mine a little less so, but it’s not easy. The total page count right now is 242. Yikes!
I created a Facebook group, called “Odyssey Helpers and Officionados” (yes, I mis-spelled that — I mean no, it’s a new word I made up!). If you’re interested, please join. Benefits currently include a chance to be in the book, and to chat with me and my friends/fans.
I still can’t share much Odyssey art, but here’s one of the layout sketches from the end of the book.
