September/October 2019 Fly-By Status Report ā My First Tattoo Experience! (Iām a Grown-Up Hobbit, Part 2)
Posting a month late, twice in one year? Hey, come on, I always have a good reason! This time, I was waiting til a very specific wound healed so I could get a good photo. That is, I took my temporary tattoo idea I mentioned in my January Fly-By Status Report, and made it permanent! I couldn’t shake my desire for one, even though I had some reservations, but finally decided I should just go for it! So I got my first real tattoo the year of my 33rd birthday after all! (If you’re confused or feel like you’re missing context, read the post here.) So what does the tattoo…

#WeeklyVenture Challenge: Finding Fairy Doors & Stashing my first #FAFATL!

The Atlanta Miniature Society had a show & sale event going on this weekend, and I never remember to plan for it til its too late š So I decided to celebrate Talk Like a Pirate Day this year with my favorite first mate, going on a quest for local burritos and fairy doors. The burritos were the best food outing idea we’d had in at least a month. The weather was fantastic, and the jerk chicken in…

New shiny site design!
Hi everyone! Welcome back to the new and improved canelsonauthor.com! Not only has the URL changed a little, hacking off the superfluous “official” part, as you probably noticed, but I’ve made some design changes as well! Hope you like it! I certainly do! It’s been a long time coming. Just letting you know, I deleted all my extra post categories and listed everything under “Blog,” and I’ve been cleaning out my list of tags, which might mess up some page linking throughout the Web (to say nothing of changing the urls). But thankfully, everything should still point to this site, and I didn’t delete any posts, so between the search…

Finally the long-promised video is up! Happy (belated) Talk Like A Pirate Day, guys! Swashbookler Cap’n Tess Marlowe and her pirate crew have a showdown with one of their fiercest enemies! WATCH IT IN HD! It’s better! I DO NOT OWN Pirates of the Caribbean or “The Black Pearl” remix.
