I’m about to enter The Fence photography exhibit (yet again — I keep trying!), and the photos I’ve selected to enter make me nervous, for reasons I’m not ready to reveal to you. In fact, a lot of my art (both photography and writing) makes me nervous, and that’s actually a good thing. That’s when…

Run, Attica, run
“Run, Attica, run,” I said out loud that first time I turned left with “the bike in the attic” on the Freedom Parkway path. So it’s easy to understand why we had to stop when Attica and I were Traveling at the Speed of Bike past this new art on the Atlanta Beltline today. This…
Hard to write right now
It’s hard to write right now, with all that’s happening nationwide. I’m feeling sort of like this art I passed while Traveling at the Speed of Bike this week, if that makes sense. The words will come back. But, for now, the bike rides help. Five miles into a ride and I feel hopeful again….

Art
This is a quick collage of my solo art exhibits to date (plus I’ve been part of a few group shows). I’ve just released my 2017/2018 schedule as part of 7 MPH. Now that Traveling at the Speed of Bike is published, it feels good to get back to my art.
Totality
The coming of Totality today has made me think about the totality of my life as well, especially because it’s a birthday week for me. I realized yesterday while having yet another death-defying ride in the dangerous suburb-city where I currently live that I had gotten so fixated on “hitting my miles” lately that I…
