For the writer types out there: blurbs, reviewers, commentators, and op/ed folks: There’s a few activities that are beginning to spin up as this year moves along, not the least of which will be the Towne Cryer moving from it’s current format to full magazine size over the winter.

So in short, we’re beginning to look for additional people who’d be interested in writing pieces – they can range from faire reviews, articles on history, interviews, or interest pieces, drop me a note here or via email.

About the lightning photo I’d posted a few days back – I’ve had a number of people post and inquire if it was something reflective of my mood or the weekend or anything like that, and it’s quite patently nothing like that. I just get homesick every so often for Midwest Thunderstorms, and while I expect the next time I see one I’ll be reminded of the downsides of them (and how hot and muggy it invariably gets around a really good one). But in the end, they’re just beautiful to watch, and so I saw the pic and had to repost it.

It’s been a long time since I’ve been sitting on the hood of a car in the middle of the country (e.g. some country road w the flint hills all around) and watching a thunderhead work it’s way across. Dat’s it. Nothing more deep than that.

We now return you to our regularly scheduled meme’s.
