In the year 2013...

In the year 2013...

...I will write more.

Not necessarily here, but probably.
Not necessarily anything that will ever see the light of day, but maybe.

I've just noticed I didn't do much of it this year. What little I did was short and went almost directly to puppet staging. Nothing wrong with that, but for next year.....I have plans.

In the Year 2013...

In the Year 2013...

...I will see more theatrrr.

I want to keep it non-daunting, so the goal is one (1) show I am not directly involved in per month.

Puppet Report 2012

Puppet Report 2012

- I made 14 puppets
- 5 of them were singing penises
- plus a handful of object puppets, which aren't quite as involved
- also refurbished 1 puppet, which wound up being way more involved than I expected
- smallest puppet: 3"
- largest puppet: just over 12'
- 4 of the puppets were edible
- 2 of those were actually eaten onstage
- none of the edible puppets were penises

Jumping the Gun A Bit

Jumping the Gun A Bit

Given that I've had a massively busy year, I've decided to take the month of December

a) off
b) in reflection

So, I'll probably be blogging about that. Because blogs are a better place for extended writing than FB and twitter. Maybe daily, if it works out, maybe not; I don't intend to freak myself out about it, that's for sure.

Honestly, as this is happening, it makes a really lovely kind of sense. One usually takes stock in January; but by the time you've done that, you're already behind on the new year. By doing it now, I can start 2013 running. Unless the Mayans come and kick our asses, of course. Then it's all moot.

Besides, December's a basically useless month, anyway, what with all the holidays and social obligations and whatnot. Plus it's so frakkin' dark outside. Might as well go into a reflect/rebuild phase.
