I'd rather be here now ~ a new publication
I'd rather be here now is an experiment in sharing… a train of thought, a description of artistic process, a rant, a joke, a picture, a story… we’ll see how it goes. I am beginning this project without knowing what it will become. That’s the only way I can begin. Make. Write. Draw. Share.
Even though this will require adherence to certain schedules and systems, I don’t want to phone it in. If there is any point in doing this at all, it is to engage in the spiritual practice of not phoning it in. Or texting it. I want to offer you my presence. That is the challenge for me, all the time.
Presence requires attention to the particular in the context of it’s only mystery, and I like it. Keeping my focus on the particular saves me from myself in the same way that being stuck in a body and a life span holds me on this earth and yes, forces me to deal with the omniscient present.

Note: I often deal with the omniscient present by hiding under the bed, or equivalent activities, like looking at endless clips of The Nanny on Facebook...
After I see more clearly where this project is taking me, what it is becoming, I may revise its about page. For now, IRBHN is finding its form through the doing. And I never want that to stop. I want the riverbed to be wide enough for an unimpeded flow. I will tell you one thing though... there will be cartoons!
I hope you will check it out, and if you find it intriguing, please subscribe! You will receive every new post in your email.

The creation of something new
is not accomplished
by the intellect,
but by the play instinct
acting from inner necessity.
The creative mind plays
with the objects it loves.
Carl Jung (1875 - 1961)
