I'm very sorry I haven't posted in a while, and I actually don't see myself posting in at least a few days after today and here is why:
I am completely creatively drained for three reasons, and those reasons are a) I have numerous other creative endeavors I've been working on including my band (which after just two months may have a very good chance of getting support from a severely indie record label here in Austin) b) I have a lot of schoolwork (by the time I'm done with my homework, while I want to do something creative, it's 10:00 at night, and I'm ready to sleep) and finally c) it's just too hot (this is a problem because, I find, I get a large portion of my inspiration from the weather, specifically the beauty of nature. When it's too hot for too long, everything seems very bland, everything seems the same, hot and sticky, and like nothing good is going on, whereas once colder months hit, I will again regain my inspiration through the way the trees look without leaves. Or the way the fog wraps around the curves of the road, and other obstacles, and the headlights emerging from the misty depths that is a cold foggy winter morning).
So, basically, I'm taking pictures, I'm just not thinking any of them are good enough to show to anyone.
I hope you understand, I'm not ignoring this, or forgetting about it, but until inspiration hits me once more, and the photos pour out, it seems to be on hold. Don't stop checking, check once a week, I may throw something up. As Anton Newcombe puts it in the documentary DiG! when asked if the city he moved to was creatively inspiring "I find it dismal" and that is exactly how I feel about the city I'm living in right now.
