Okay, tomorrow is May 1st, the last date that the SoFoBoMo procrastenators have to get a full 31 days of their SoFoBoMo project and book completed. I can hear the groans. I can see the goofy smiles of all of those who finished their SoFoBoMo projects in April. I can not see the bewildered look of those who think... Continue Reading →
This week – SoFoBoMo prep
Since my goal is to use Blurb as the foundation to carry my SoFoBoMo project (yes, starting May 1 for me, I get to maximize the 31 days, which I may need each and ever one), I became very diligent on trying to finish my first Blurb book, In Passing. So how is that going,... Continue Reading →
SoFoBoMo – Editioned Book
I have continued to muddle on about what to do with the SoFoBoMo project and the resulting book. I think that I have come up with a possible solution. One of the things that Laurie Frank had said at the Palm Springs Photo Festival last night was that many of the artists in her gallery... Continue Reading →
Color Management – Web
For this post, I am guessing that many of you are not going to need to read it. And it is one of those good news - bad news things, at least for me. So to save some of your some trouble, the bottom line is that if you want to get your images looking... Continue Reading →
SoFoBoMo – Blurb output
At the moment, I am planning to use Blurb, the Print on Demand (POD) self-publishing book company, as my book out put for my 2008 SoFoBoMo project. And I just read Gordon McGregor's recent Blurb trial run experiment that I think is going to help me be successful: think Color Management. Like Gordon, I... Continue Reading →

I'm part of that procrasting group that will be starting on May 1st. I have my calendar blocked out for an intensive 5 day shoot and after which I wil... Continue Reading →

So that I can get it to Tim before he forgets our conversation! ;- ) Meanwhile, I... Continue Reading →
SoFoBoMo shift
I thought that I had picked out a suitable subject and time frame for my SoFoBoMo project, but then fate has stuck its head in. I recently completed a medium term project in Riverside County and so I was thinking about where I wanted to work on my SoFoBoMo project. And I had narrowed it... Continue Reading →
SoFoBoMo POD options – again
During the week, I had a chance to investigate the Amazon POD option, BookSurge. So I tried to read all of their teasers, but it appears is that BookSurge wants to get paid to do it all for you, while holding all of their cards very close to their chest. I had not realized getting a... Continue Reading →
Getting Organized
As my title states, I am trying to get organized. My bad tendency is to get over committed and at some point, I need to figure out who is on first and what is on second. I am trying to get organized after being out of the country for three weeks, back a week and... Continue Reading →
