    Not sure when I’ll upload all these recent writings. Because a few things – why the need to share? questioning that whole idea of social sharing. Really the important thing is what you create as an artist. The behind the scenes, the thoughts and opinions? Not so important. The focus should be on the work.…

    Now, seemingly always, drowning in content. Reading like three books, in the middle of a film I’ve seen before, and also now converting all the longform articles in my reading list to PDFs (400+ so far) so that I can read them. Because I’ve now got two iPads – one for movies and one for…

Then a text appeared on the screen – “Call me it’s urgent.” Immediate reaction – frustration. Another text appeared from a second person – “They want you…

    One obvious thing is that I’m not writing enough. I’m too busy moping, feeling isolated even as I work to isolate myself. .:. A couple people from the neighborhood came over and asked why we weren’t so involved in the neighborhood anymore. My son and I told them, and a couple days later the neighborhood…

    Yesterday I had a profound experience. I was the lucky one chosen to photograph the ceremony where a new Justice on the Utah Supreme Court was sworn in. I left the event feeling an overwhelming aura of positivity. My goal now is to build on that feeling and carry it with me. The speakers at…

    Sitting on the baseline with my Sony RX-100 iii. It draws a lot of questions from other photographers. The funny thing is, they never seem to get it. And even when I answer all their questions with, yes, it is good enough for a working pro, they tack on some bullsh*t requirements that no one’s…

    Texts sent while sitting in my car, waiting for the funeral of a slain police officer. Parked in front of me is a KSL NewsRadio vehicle that has been idling for 45 minutes, and probably won’t stop. + Here + Six shooters and we’ve got a mug online (an hour after funeral started) + It’s…

    It’s 420am and I’m awake in my hotel room. Outside it’s 24 degrees and there’s a fresh coat of icy snow on my car. I can see it from the window, parked next to the oil crew trucks. I’ve been awake for an hour, reading from the unending stash of magazine articles I keep saving…
