Dan Brown Must Die.

But, in the meantime, here's a satirical picture of him I drew (very shoddily) back when Ellie had just gotten a wacom tablet:



(For more topical Dan Brown satires, why not take a peek at Ellie's blog all of her own?)

Now then, on to matters of import. Firstly, I STILL do not have the wherewithall to make our Red Ape performance be all up on the internet but I assure you it will happen in the not-too-distant.

My contributions to the wonderful self-propelled art machine that is Fiddlesticks at the Lost and Found gallery in Somewhere, America, will hopefully be going up (and down, where necessary) on the twelfthf of this monfthf. Keep your eyes firmly affixed (airfixed too, if you're so inclined) on the official Post-Neo blog for documentation regarding that.

"A Body of Water (and a mind of silt)" is nearing completion. Once all the pages are looking their absolute best I shall go about trying to make some copies what you can hold in yer hand. I'm not sure exactly how much they'll cost but I'm afraid I WILL need some money off of those of you who want a copy, simply in order to continue making them. You have been warned.

Mouse Milk Books are also hatching a couple of crafty plots which will probably result in even more lovely, silly publications for your very real delight. These include a proposed pocket-sized book of splat poems for everyday use, the third edition of EFW's Curious Almanac and a series of so-called "Random Prose Works" I am currently writing whenever I ought to be doing something else. These will be made available to the public in the form of sealed envelopes which give no hint towards which of the six possible works are contained within, much like some of the highly collectable plastic Japanese tat I sometimes find myself curiously craving. More on all that soon, I promise.

For now I shall leave you with a poem I have just written. Whoosh:

a tear in the right eye
choked on my oat cake
nostalgicallly saddened
yet proud and gladdened to see thee
still writing like a mentalist.
fine style MR dbe.
Prominent chins and fibre glass,
Yours,
