no, there are no trader joe's anywhere in florida, which sucks as i had eaten trader joe's almost exclusively from seventh grade through twelfth. but it sure is a treat when i'm home.


and here's some news for ya. i just got an email from MoCCA. turns out that the Harvey Awards this year (which will be presented at the MoCCA Art Fest for the first time as they will be from now on) will feature a very special keynote speaker, one Neil Gaiman

so anyone who hasn't already decided that the MoCCA Art Fest is something worth their time and effort, i advise you to think again.
james kochalka comes every year. brian wood comes every year. frank miller comes every year. evan dorkin comes every year. every year there's a really great lifetime acheivement recipient. two years ago it was jules feiffer. last year it was art spiegleman. i have been sworn to secrecy regarding this years at least until the official press release, but i'm telling you, its gonna be great. and now, we've got Neil Gaiman as a keynote speaker!!!


now i know i had nothing to do with this as its a Harveys related deal, and Gaiman has won a few Harveys in his days, but i was heavily involved in the Harveys last year, and i was the one who mentioned to Lawrence how we should try to contact Neil and see if he were interested in doing anything at the Art Fest way back on June 30th, which Lawrence thought was a great idea.
i still think i have very little impact on what MoCCA does, but Lawrence did point out to me that Bill Sienkiewicz donated a piece of art to the Forbes fundraiser and i was the one who had spoken to Bill on behalf of MoCCA to get him involved.




as per my own life, i'm heavily entrenched in graphic design projects, which i feel very good about. the the heavily entrnched part, but i'm very pleased with my final turnouts.
