does anyone know exactly what the indigo "art project" is supposed to be about? Is it intended as an exhibit of some sort?

couldn't resist!

It says "I just barely survived Hurricane Flossy"
...or aka Hurricane Floozy as she has yet become known, since she was just a big tease!

flirting flirting

The hot stare of admiring eyes- unsupressable blush heating your cheeks- unable to will the corners of your mouth to uncurl- that magnetic pull that sucks you closer and closer unable to resist... remember the feeling?
'Unexpected Discoveries'- the latest!
My cousin Danny just got married to Zulay Dominguez this weekend. I painted this for them. It is a strange painting but the colors make me happy- I can feel the heat of the falling sun. I hope they like it.

Query letter blues

So I haven't been publshed- does that mean I'm scum!

I wrote a mysterious story- a correspondance between two strangers (an artist & photographer) so the book will weave text & image in the great tradition of William Blake.
The artist is an innkeeper who lives on a coffee farm in Hawaii & has never left her island. The photographer is a fisherman who spends his days circling the globe. 67 postcards unfold the curious story of how these two unlikely characters attempt to unravel the reason behind the bizarre disappearance of a mutual friend... the bellydancer, Danae.
Secrets surface and compound thru unexpected twists in this genre-defying tale of mysterious coinsidence.

...anybody wanna read it?

question for any of my herb-knowledgable buddies

I have this random bizarre chronic cough- since January... but it isn't like a cold, I am not sick, per se...
I am fine most of the time but at night when I lay down to go to bed... I can't sleep cuz I am hacking away nonstop- till I get up and make some tea, read, take drugs (legal ones). But UGH I miss getting to sleep at night.
So when I cough there is no stuff being coughed up- there is a slight weeze at the top of my sternum- I feel like the problem is below my coughing mechanism, cuz I cough and cough but it seems useless to whatever is causing the tickle provoking said cough.
So... during one of my late night sleepless sessions I tried researching some herbal remedies... ordered some Coltsfoot and Comfrey from an apothocary cuz those sounded powerful- got fennel in the backyard, Bay & Cinnamon in the pantry... Mom sent me some mushroom pills that don't seem very useful...
Any suggestions?
