two weeks late again... but there is a reason

I've been trying to keep a reasonably regular posting schedule - weekly but yet again, I missed a week. I guess there's been a bit going on. I returned this morning to the work on my novel. Its a 5am regime I began that actually has served me very well. 

I have a number of creative endeavours and interests and sometimes deciding which one gets the most direct attention is tricky. I'm a musician who began as a cartoonist who also did watercolors and with the birth of computers saw the potential for art utilising digital devices. 

I've since then expanded to do 3D modelling and animation, digital photography and compositing as well as now somebody, who realises musical ideas through Digital Audio Workstations and looping gear. I'm 51 now and its been an interesting journey keeping pace with all the evolving rendering and animation technologies and 3D software since I was in my early 20's.

The fact of the matter is art takes time, and sometimes the tools to realise that art, are not entirely matured or natural for the artist. That being said others seem to be unencumbered by it. That's has not always been my experience I must say, and along the way the tech has inadvertently perhaps caused a little loss of me and by that I mean the closest outworking of who I feel I creatively am. 

But I think I'm slowly coming to a newer creative version of myself and that with the added creative discipline of novel writing, egged on by one or two friends that ceaselessly pestered me into getting busy writing a novel. Thanks guys.... I think
