Feb-March 2023
A list of books, audiobooks, podcasts, television, and more that I am consuming.
A list of achievements, articles, or plans in the shop to showcase my production.

Life Stuff
I did the Stoveworks residency and left mid-way through to collect all my things from Texas. I returned, did a bit more art while doing my day job, and mediating my divorce. I returned to Birmingham. Then took another quick trip to Dallas/Fort Worth. I am back in Birmingham now, living in a temporary apartment downtown.
