Above, my first attempt at a portrait on my new Wacom drawing tablet. This is of Amboise Bierce, the author of the The Devil's Dictionary, of which inspired my own Writer's Devil's Dictionary, which is found in my collection Book by Author. I drew freehand in a program called Krita, a great free and open-source Photoshop-style software. It felt a bit weird to draw on a tablet and see the results on a distant screen, but I'm liking going digital.

And below, a landscape with no particular relationship to any of my writing, except, I guess, it's possible there's a nice bit of woodland depicted somewhere in one of my books. Yeah, that's the ticket.
