Happy Holidays!


Happy Holidays! Here's wishing all 4 of my blog readers a very happy holiday season. May you catch some elusive butterfly dreams and have a topping new year. Isn't it amazing how we all continue on through the years?

I'm sure the reason that Robinson Crusoe kept up his journal is that he had the complete isolation of working at home and being able to focus his thoughts without distraction... even though he might have been desperate for a little distraction to entertain him. Sometimes we just have to do everything ourselves.

The simplicity of e-book app making...


I finally got an iPad... a mini. It's fabulous. I was thrilled to finally see my apps on a screen larger than my iPod.

I am drawn to the simplicity of the process of creating ebook apps. This photo captures that simplicity... from the first idea to the sketches to the finished art and the audio. All in one quick creation... (about 4 weeks actually).

Finally, like magic, the 'Publish' button makes it all real.

Or are these pesky little gizmos really real I wonder?
Time will tell...
