Is one really the loneliest number?

No. One has lots of friends and things to do.

The loneliest number is out there on the edge of the universe of mathematics. It has too many digits for anyone to write down. It looks really cool in several bases, it has so many interesting properties, but nobody will ever see it, ever reach it by any process, never know it exists, not if we look down every path until the sun swells and the seas dry up.

#ScribesAndMakers 2/6 In graphic novels, what do you consider more important, the art or words?

Tough call, but probably the art.

#ScribesAndMakers Feb. 5 – You now have the same occupation as the main character of your current WIP (or book you are reading/last read) What job are you doing?

I'm... I'm a horse 🐴 Not a domesticated or working one, for better or for worse, but a wild/feral mare with a filly. Could have been worse I guess.

#ScribesAndMakers Feb 5. You now have the same occupation as the main character of your current WIP (or book you are reading/last read) What job are you doing?

Since I'm editing two WIPs, I have a choice between a biology teacher or a squire.

The former is probably more realistic. 🙂

Trying to figure out how to steal a planetary treasury *and get away with it* (the latter is the hard part).

#ScribesAndMakers 2, Do you have any annual traditions not tied to holidays?
A few. At the end of the school year, I take the kids for ice cream.

My friends and I recently started going out for dinner and window shopping around my birthday.

#ScribesAndMakers What's the most stressful thing about your creativity?

Writing is work. It's ridiculous how much effort goes into the absurd stuff I write. That said, I do creative stuff because I enjoy it. If it was stressful, I wouldn't do it.

#ScribesAndMakers Jan 26: Tell us about a memorable live music experience.

I got to see Leonard Cohen live in Vancouver a year or two before he died. The thing that was remarkable was how *quietly* he plays. Everyone in the band is audible because no one is drowning anyone out, and the audience has to be quiet, too, if they want to hear it. It was the best mix I might have ever heard. I asked my dad, a professional live sound man, and he said Cohen is notorious for it.
