Site Rebuild
I'm going through another re-build sometime around the beginning of the year. This address will stay the same, but I am not sure if I will be using the same blog service yet.
Why? Partially due to everything else in life taking precidence over this site and partilly because I have not hit the right stride with the site. It just does not feel right, I haven't found the grove for it just yet. It feels out of tune, so to speak.
What are some of the things I envision for the sight? Well, for starters I would like to intergrate it into my Facebook account more, maybe even add a Twitter feed. I have to admit that I have been a ludite when it comes to Twitter, but it looks like I just need to bite the digital bullet and submit. Resistance is futile.
Also, I want to have a seperate gallery. I plan on adding a few limited run pieces for sale, but I need to be able to figure out how to sell them. That means fidning a new print house as well as a way to sell them. Ebay? Direct? Not sure just yet.
Also, I need to get some sort of schedule going, even if it is a once a week post type thing. When it comes to writing, I never seem to be able to meet a deadline, and that includes blogs. Maybe a pictures-I-like-and-why column once a week and a weekly this-is-what-I-shot post. It's funny, with my actual photography I have no problems with deadlines! I've stayed up for days making sure that a run of photos was ready for a client and have always met the deadline. With writing, not so much. Dunno why that is.
But, there will be changes soon. Most will not show till the new year, but I can guarantee that you will see an improvement withing the next 3 week.
Dang, I just set a deadline. ;)

Also, http://www.stacybaugherphotography.com/ should start forwarding here at some point in the future.

Just life, update of stuff and such...
Man, I hate that it has been so long since I have posted anything.
Photography is still going slow. I just have not had any real time with family, work and writing. I’ve got to make a decision soon on whether I not I am changing my webhosting for the main photography site. The only real photos I have taken have been self-portraits to use as a headshot over at Major Spoilers. I wasn’t very happy with them, but the weather has been making everything difficult. Speaking of Major Spoilers…
I’ve been contributing reviews there regularly and seem to have a bi-weekly or so article, The Comic Casting Couch. A new Comic Casting Couch should be out in the next few days; I’ve finished the article, and just have to create the images to go along with it. It was the subject of a poll I created, chose which of the 5 heroes you want to give the Comic Casting Couch treatment to, and Iron Fist won. So in a few days or so, you should be seeing an THE WAY OF THE IRON FIST treatment on the site.
In regards to reviews, I found I was mentioned by Bob Greenberger on his website a few weeks back as the first person to review his Iron Man prose novel, Femmes Fatales. He even quoted some of my review! I was actually rather flattered, but I wonder how I should let him know I am not a she? I’m not mad, I actually found it rather funny, and now I know why Stephen recently insisted that I get a headshot in to him! I’m sure Katie will get a laugh out of it.
And regarding Twitter... should I? I have been pretty good at avoiding it, but with my writing picking up and the activity over at Major Spoilers, I feels like it is something I might need to get into if for no other reason than to follow creators and such. I’m gonna think on that a while. No one reads this blog, so I wonder…
Well, there will be more regular post starting today. I just needed some time to get life situated, is it ever really situated? Katie is doing great and loves her job, Emily is shooting up like a weed. I swear she has grown 6 inches just since we moved to the new rental house. And as always, time is just going by to fast.
Till next time…

No photos for me and computer issues....
Well, Wellsfest was a bust for me this weekend. We didn't get to go due to a variety of issues. Eventually, I will get to go to this thing!
What concerns me more are the computer problems I am currently having. Microsoft Office is not wanting to cooperate with me, and Word decided to auto save a corrupted version of a new On The Comic Couch article I was writing for Major Spoilers. It also did the same for a review of The Web and several pages of story for another project.
Yippie. Can we talk about how much I hate this dang computer?
Luckily, Google was there to save the day. I am not a fan of the Google search engine, but I do like their Gmail and Documents applications. With Google Documents, I was able to re-write my The Web #1 review and get it submitted to Stephen at Major Spoilers for publication. As long as he does not have problems opening the file (please Lord, don't let him have any problems opening the file) I will be re-writing my Comic Couch article and writing a prose novel review tomorrow night. Hell, if Google Documents does everything I need, I may start using it until I get a new computer and take Microsoft Office off for now. Got to find my durn install disc first....
In photography news, I plan on setting up a little photoshoot for my daughter tomorrow. I'm going to see what sort of cuteness I can capture of her in her Wonder Woman Halloween costume! Hopefully it will work out!

Another photography outing this weekend...
As it stands right now, I am HOPING to be able to get out to Wellsfest 2009, a great little festival here in the Jackson area at the Jamie Fowler Boylle Park. Lots of fun, and this year the procedes go to Operation: Shoestring.
Hopefully I will be able to get some good images of some of the bands. I really want to get back into some promotional photography.
Go check out the main site for Wellsfest 2009 here!
