Illustration Friday: Red

I created the illustration above for this week's Illustration Friday assignment, which was "Red." To comment on the above illustration in Flickr, please click on the image.



Above: I revamped the page for Urban Tapestry's Sex and Chocolate page, prompted while answering some questions for an interview for BlogTO. I'll post a URL when the interview is online.

Jeff had a bunch of our friends over yesterday for an all-day gaming session. I was happily in hostess mode; Jeff rarely has gaming sessions at our place, and I was in the mood to entertain. I'm pretty sure none of the attendees went hungry. :-)




Above: I'm wearing a t-shirt that Walter gave me at GAFilk; the text reads "Whatever Boys Can Do, GIRLS CAN DO BETTER." I suspect John (seated) didn't realize he'd be in the photo, too. :-D





I did take a break from hostessing-stuff to play one game called Diamont. It was easy to learn, quick and fun, particularly when it comes to trying to guess what other players are up to. We played this with our nieces (9 and 12 years old) later, and they enjoyed it as well.

I lazed about most of today, reading and drinking tea. Later in the afternoon, I took a walk and had a late lunch at one of my favourite casual restaurants, Chai, before coming home and doing some drawing.

REALLY looking forward to getting back to my writing tomorrow. I was tempted to write on the weekend, but I've found that taking a break during an intensive creative project is a very Good Thing.

Hope you all had a good weekend!

The Cry of the Icemark by Stuart Hill. I wasn't sure if I was going to enjoy this until I got to the end of the first chapter, but then I was hooked by the interesting main character and the engrossing storyline. I'm not usually a fan of books with detailed descriptions of battle scenes, but the author managed to convey the action in language that even a non-battle-fan could appreciate. I look forward to reading the next in the series!
