I’ve been away from the ninnernet for a few days so I wasn’t able to post about Moebius when I wanted to. He was a HUGE influence on my heart, mind and eye. I am actually finding it hard to put together the words. Despite my lack of words, understand that there is profound sadness in his passing and profound gratitude for the spark he lit in that little day dreamer so long ago.

The Next book in the Tales of The Continuing Time
Buried as I am under laundry and whatever messes my ten month old son has seen fit to unleash upon me, I don’t get lots of time to peruse the internet like I once did. Therefore I am somewhat behind in my news and blog feeds and such. Taking a break this weekend I sat down to read my feeds and saw that a friend of mine, Daniel Keys Moran was going to release his book The AI War: The Big Boost. He had some possible cover art posted and while they would’ve done the job fine, I thought such a long awaited book deserves a little bit of a push -a little something extra. I offered to do a rendition for him even though I knew the deadline would be kinda tight. I dunno, is twenty-four hours a tight deadline? It was a bit hectic for about five hours or so, with conversations via Facebook, texting and emails but it came together last minute and it doesn’t seem to suffer because of it. One of those serendipitous things, I guess. 
If you enjoy science fiction, do yourself a favor and pick up the previous Tale of Continuing Time stories Emerald Eyes and The Long Run as well.
Now back to the project that this little cover thingy interrupted. It involves drawing a motorcycle – I am as excited as I am intimidated! XD
