Book Review: Ice Song
Ice Song By Kirsten Imani Kasai I was very intrigued by this book from the blurb on the back, which prompted me to check it out from the library. And then it was nothing like what the back leads you to believe. For a novel whose main character is a gender-bender...
Book Review: The Ordinary
The Ordinary By Jim Grimsley I picked this book up from the library because it had a very interesting premise: There is one world that is very science-oriented, logical, over-populated and high-tech. There is another world that is flat, plentiful, and where magic is a...
Next Design: Input?
Ok, so the poll plug-in I was trying to use before apparently does not work well. Trying this again, new plug-in: [merlic_poll id="220"] And to go with that: [merlic_poll id="223"]
Promo Shot

Crafty Connections
This month I am honored to be sponsoring two fabulous blogs (look for the DA ad in the sidebars!). Little Luck Tree Shannon over at Little Luck tree runs a very positive blog sharing all things creatively inspiring (crafts, fashion, DIY projects, life thoughts, etc.)....

This week brings a lot of new things to the DD shop. Namely, tote bags and shirts for the menfolk! (see pictures below) Now, these two particular tote bags have already been claimed, but I have some more blank bags in stock and will be printing them up soon. Also:...
Book Review: Bridge of Birds
Bridge of Birds By Barry Hughart This was a surprising find. I'm not huge into the traditional Asian/Chinese style of storytelling, so the subtitle 'A Novel of an Ancient China that Never Was' made me hesitate just a tad. I'm glad I ended up picking it up. This is a...
Next Design: Elemental
My rough (but now ready to be screened) sketch-up of the four elements, the next design I'll be doing prints of.
