Hello from the road. Tomorrow we’ll start burning it up. Here is a prompt that reflects the chaos of the moment. Actually it was a fun collaboration with my son, Broadus, but when I look at it now it seems to fit. So here it is. There is a story in here somewhere. I hope you find it…

Welcome
I started this blog after moving to northern New Mexico from coastal North Carolina. Feeling the loss of my creative community, I started posting works in progress as a way to push myself forward and connect with other writers and painters.
For the first eight months or so I offered original narrative images as weekly image prompt for writers. The Storybook Collaborative pages document the collaborations.
Sadly - for I have enjoyed the adventure, and meeting so many interesting, creative souls - keeping the blog has has taken a back seat to sleep, family, work obligations and the birth of our Mountain daughters. I'd like to get back to it and still hope to one day. Until such time I am delighted by your visit and hope you will leave a comment and come back for more.

Love this one, well I love them all, but each one deserves its own nodd. Hope you’re good, hi to Naomi, bubbs and B. I’ll hopefully have some time this weekend to play this one.

Again, I am late to the party, not in chaos, but in praise.
I am loving the photos you share! They give us a real intimacy even thru cyberspace.

Thank you every one for the notes and responses to the image prompt. I am just unwinding from a 3 day drive across the U.S. south. And Texas. Hard to imaging what it would be like growing up on those plains.
I am looking forward to reading your works and will post them tonight, I hope, or as soon as I can. The painting was a fun collaboration with Broadus, who was seven at the time. It will be interesting to see what the image has prompted.
Best wishes,
Rick
