Who am I? I am a writer, animator, artist, and carpenter. I am
currently restoring The 1902 Grand View Hotel, in a small town in
Northwest Arkansas. It sat disused and falling into disrepair for
many years and I have turned that around. It was last open as a hotel
around 1970. My hope is to turn it a rural Art and Animation Learning
and Production Center, open to anyone in the world who wants to
participate.
My first love is
writing. When I write I am free of all earthly bounds. Nothing exists
outside my story and I am completely free. I strive to give that same
experience to any who reads my stories and I would like to take you
on this adventure with me. As you read along, please feel free to ask
questions about the story, though I won’t give spoilers, prior to
reaching a point in the story. You can also ask me questions about my
writing process, or anything else if my story makes you think about.
I have a tremendous collection of odd bits of knowledge and I am open
to sharing them.
As for my project to make an open center for the arts, our town numbers just over 5,000. There are only about
26,000 in the whole county so you can imagine it’s not easy raising
funds for such a project and I spend as much, or more, of my time in
pursuit of that as I do working on the building.
One of the ways that I have to raise funds is our website LuckyCatGear.com.
I have my original Lucky Cat designs printed on T-shirts, hoodies, mugs
and such. There are also videos and information about the Grand View
Project and Arkansas Pond Friends the first animated series we'll be
working on. If you'd like to help out, or just learn more about the
project, please stop by and take a look. Though if you are reading this
and we're still in the middle of Covid-19, our production facility is
shut down right now, but you can still watch the videos and learn more
about what we're doing here.
Read, enjoy, take a
break from life.
