I DID THIS | So one day a guy walked into the store and we began to chat. It hasn't been an unusual thing, that, but the outcome for sure was unique to me at the time.

His name is Owen Roth, and he was developing a podcast about local entrepreneurs like myself. It's called The Bossless Path. You can find my interview here: https://youtu.be/MjsHwvG4Ca4?si=yXsBawlRoWYumocN

Now, the cool cool cool thing for me is that he also interviewed a WHOLE BUNCH OF MY FRIENDS! Like Chris Scaffidi, Craig McPherson, Allison Lamplugh, Jason Young and Ron Gilliland.

You can find all our interviews (and more) at The Bossless Path: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLdj_FhUsAZuzyy8UU2C3wQcKWM7SGP5gt&si=ZKiYjkKWHoZdlzrq

It was funny when Owen let me have a pre-edited look-see of the interview. I immediately wrote back and told him that I had to quit listening to myself - not because I don't like hearing my self talk - but I couldn't take the firehose form of how my excited self just had SO MUCH TO SAY in a SINGLE BREATH! So, I asked him to give the listeners some space between my sharing. Heh.

He said he thought I was just being hard on myself. And he did edit some. I watched the whole thing. I knida liked it...;)

If when you watch this you discover something new you didn't know about me or the work I do - let me know! Or does any of it inspire you in your life? Tell me what that is! Or were you just as overwhelmed by the stream of consciousness sharing as I first was?

More later Friends!

RESTARTING | It has been a decade since I've taken the time to regularly produce new art - so - I now have one full day per week dedicated to creating new work. I started with a squiggly line on a blank piece of drawing paper that I probably made 6 or more years ago. The piece has evolved to the state you see in the full color photo over the past 3 weeks. Although I do dedicate a full day to arting - I have found myself several other mornings working on this doodle.

I have a new idea for adding a 3D element to this piece, which I will experiment with over the next couple of weeks. Expect progress photos as i begin that experiment...

The miracle in restarting? I find myself deeply satisfied in the creation of new art, AND it's making all the other tasks in life more joyful and exciting as well... One major impact to our Conundrum House business is that I have redesigned some of the Game Spaces in the Store & Play Library, with another redesign pending in our event space - The Saunders Room.

Come see it all - the new art, our recreated spaces and more THIS THURSDAY for The Corvallis Arts Walk!
