Out of commission

My computer hard drive died for good last Thursday, so I haven't been blogging at all. As a fast, 10-finger typist, I just can't handle trying to input long paragraphs of text using two fingers on my Kindle or one on my phone! So while the computer is in the repair shop for back-up and a new hard drive installation, I haven't been posting much on either of my blogs.

My cousins, however, were kind enough to let me come over this afternoon and use their computer from noon to 5:30, so I caught up everywhere; I posted one long piece on bookadept.com/blog, and then wrote and lined up four more to post over the next week and a half; and I'm on here to put up my paltry art turnout during that same time period. I only have two pieces to share: One of them goes with one of the posts for The Book Adept, and the other is an urban sketch from this morning's breakfast at the deli.

Here is a book cover of a book I reviewed (this one won't post until March 1):



Here is a sketch I did while waiting for my breakfast (and also waiting for it to get cold!) at Brent's Deli in Northridge this morning:

Fortunately, all the people who were sitting there when I started to draw stayed there until the end; I did miss out on the legs of the lady in blue, so just pretend like she's really limber and sitting cross-legged on her bar stool!

This will probably be the last post here until I get my computer back, which may be as late as next Thursday.
