I love it when a plan comes together.

We spent the weekend being inspired, then searching for supplies, then crafting up some art. That is to say, we custom illustrated shoes for my kid.

If you’d asked me on Friday what my weekend plans were, I wouldn’t have said “doing art.” But I’m glad we did. It was fun, and I feel like it helped me with my writing, too. Because, of course, I wrote. I have a deadline, did I mention?

Rory’s is the pair you’re seeing on Flickr. Josh is working on his own pair, and I want to do a pair of my own, but haven’t got past the idea-deciding-on stage yet.

I got good news.

Recently found out that I won a Houston Arts Alliance fellowship. Yays! I love Houston Arts Alliance (formerly CACHH) for existing. I’ve worked with those people and, as shocking as it sounds, they actually believe that artists deserve to get rewarded for doing art.

More later. Good people, y’all send me good vibes for tomorrow and the rest of this week, okay? Hopefully, I’ll have more good news to report soon.
