A Guest Spot

I recently was handed a guest spot on Andrew Grosman’s blog, DioramaWatch. Drew’s blog centers around the diorama window on a local (to him) woman’s home. She puts together dioramas to mark major holidays like Memorial Day or the Wisconsin State Fair. The assortment of dolls and props used range from campy to creepy to oddly macabre. A while back, I did a guest piece on a Valentine’s Day diorama, and it was so well received that it only took five years for me to be offered another go at it. The piece published yesterday is about an odd, transitional, not-quite-diorama that’s currently on display. I’ll also be giving my take on whatever appears next in the magic window.

I know I’ve said it before, but I’m going to try to get back to weekly posting if not a few times a week. My last post talked about how I was emerging from a down period, and then I immediately went through a huge upheaval in my life that is still being sorted out. As it stands now, some days are great, some days are ok and some days are downright miserable. Who knows how long things will be this all over the place and unstable. At the very least it should make for interesting writing.
