April
New trees planted, they’re already in bloom. (I think this is apricot.)
Watching planes fly while lying under a big olive tree = new favorite thing.
This place isn’t as small as you think. It’s not big, but it’s big enough for nice road-trips.
Record Store Day, celebrated. No record store needed. (Here is a video of the music.)
This island is small, you say. Have you been to this wonderful beach? (First time for me.)
Is it warm enough to swim yet? (Maybe in two weeks. Hopefully.)

happy SX-70 Day
Paphos, near Aphrodite’s Rock (Petra tou Romiou) earlier this month.
And of course the photographer climbed to the edge of the cliff to take pictures.
I stayed behind, safely, with my SX-70.
These are the results.

random Monday | eclipse
My mind is currently occupied with writing, and designing things (including Matchbooks!) so here’s a random post with pictures of an eclipse circa I don’t even remember when exactly. I just found them when I scanned some slide films the other day and thought they were pretty.
Have a good week, everybody!

The Last Time I was Near a Volcano
The last time I was near a volcano it was in Hawaii and this guy was trying to get me to go on a helicopter ride over Mauna Loa on the Big Island and look at the lava.
No thanks, I said, thinking how a few months back one of those helicopters had crashed on the side of the mountain and sent its passengers to a premature and useless death.
This story was just published in Straw Dogs magazine.

Meet the Board
Just don’t call it an inspiration board. Inspiration board sounds kind of pretentious to me. I call it the board that’s on the back of our office door where I stick things I like. (or board, for short)
Such as handwritten notes from friends. Postcards, I’m crazy about postcards.
There’s one from David Alan Harvey, sent from his Road Trips project a few months ago, it features a dinosaur, a corvette AND a picture of another postcard on it.
The chocolate croissant postcard was sent to me by Jing-Jing Lee, (who is currently in Singapore launching her very first novel.) It’s my understanding that I get to exchange this postcard for a real chocolate croissant AND a place to stay close to the cafe that makes them. (Postcards are legal and binding contracts, yes?)
Some of the other current things pinned on the board: poster draft for The Shy Oxford Writers, pictures from Hollywood and Santa Monica, Matchbook Stories-related designs, a postcard and a bookmark from Atlantis, and yes, a poster about typefaces.
