A. So... Slightly different. On the on the carbon-copy side of the two-ply printer paper, so I decided to start a font system. Obviously start at the beginning...
A story about the lies we tell ourselves, exploring the crossroads of psychosis, guilt, religion, and technology.
Would be listed on Netflix as:
“Slow-Burn. Cerebral. Dark.”
Is it weakness, the compulsion to live one’s life openly with others, to readily expose our faults and frailties? Or is it strength, a spade to rip out the weeds that would love only a false version of ourself? Or perhaps it is neither… not inherently good or ill; instead, only a danger. For to live so openly requires trust. And trust, no matter how great or how small, is merely an invitation for the world to break a little further…
Crumbled Courtyard.
(A bit different… Trying to apply a minimalist style to an isometric environment drawing.)

Color of a Mirror is my cyberpunk novel centered around a musician who wants to be a rockstar. Written, designed, and published by me, it’s not bombastic or action-heavy, but rather is driven by character and personal, human issues. It gets into ideas of the subconscious and the lies we tell ourselves. If you like the dark futures of William Gibson, I think you’ll find something to like in this book.

I love different forms of communication, anything really that codes words behind beautiful design rather than actual letters. The above design motif is on the cover of the forthcoming deluxe hardcover novel, and is a stylized version of the American braille for “Color of a Mirror” (beginning at bottom left).
