Whats to Come

Im tapping my fingers on the keyboard, thinking. There is a lot to do, a lot of time to do it in, but like a spoiled child I want it all now. Must remind myself that art takes time, and I dont have the strength of a titan. I need to pace myself.

So whats going to fill this space? I dont know. I know what I need to do ; need to build a new page, possibly build off this blog, or else start fresh on a more manipulatable canvas. Build up and start advertising my photography and possibly my writing. ( focus more on the former) Im tired of this being a hobby. Im beginning to realise I might have some gifts here.

First thing, need to find a good place to put up my photos in a more categorised state. Tried yahoo, and for some reason ( before I had put my nudes up) it was slapping my hands and giving the Adult Content speech. I find this very limiting, honestly. I immediately mocked yahoo by supplying it with the necessary photographs to fullfill my reputation. *shrugs* I do need a better place to put all this stuff. I need to archive as well, thats going to be really hellish. But once its done, Ill be pleased that all my work is in one place. Im not even going to try organising it into something functional, like chronological order - that would turn my head to mush. At this very moment I have at least...at the very least, 3000 photographs. Some rubbish, some not so rubbish. Id say out of that mass , about 50% are postable/sellable/etc. Thats not too bad..I feel a bit narcissistic because a huge percentage of the entire lot are self portraits. Im not really that crazy about my own face or body, I was just available. And cheap.

I also need to start gathering some proper models. Ive had a few chances to work with local models in the past, and unfortunately lost them because I didnt have a studio. If this damned English weather would ever brighten I could at least go outdoors, but at the moment its all sleet and rain and grumbly skies. Spring is soon enough though, we shall see.

This post is very dull lol. But its helping me unload my brain a bit.
