Nobody who's seen God is small time. I suppose at some point there may be too many posts or emails to keep up with very well, but even then, the greatest part of this whole adventure I'm on with the book is discovering that I'm not alone in wanting to compare notes about the mysteries and the overwhelming love I've experienced in this "land of the living." I'm excited to e-meet you and to be able to follow some of your notes. Pete

I'll look forward to hearing what you think of it, Blake.

Drop me an email if you would like to discuss.

Story, to see his treatment of dialogue. It's screenwriting, but as I mentioned in the email, the way he pulled apart the scene from Chinatown was some of the most exciting writing I've ever encountered.

February's another month too. A good one for a contest to create the most horrible "History of St. Valentine's Day" story. I have an old one - from a time when singleness had me about ready to drive into a bridge embutment - I'd enter.

March is good too. And April. And before you know it, you'll be able to do November again.

The War of Art. Pressfield wrote The Legend of Bagger Vance and a few other things, and the very short chunks of insight he throws out are largely the artist's version of the advice Dad would give. I'd be curious to take a look at what you've done so far, by the way, and would also be interested in your thoughts about The War of Art.

Congratulations John!

Though reading you here it's no big surprise. Thank you for sharing your award-winning voice with me here.

HamBeens will do whatever Peyton requests.
As we all should.

Thanks for the link and the shout out.

And I'm glad to see a Nashville team doing something... I've been an Avalanche fan since they moved to Denver (which is where I was at the time... now I'm back in Indianapolis cheering for the blue horseshoes). I've spent years trying to inject one phrase into hockey culture: "he bites my jagr." My friend and I got Mike Ricci to laugh at this at a Broncos game one time - though he didn't know his knick-name is "yard sale" for his equipment-shedding wipeouts.

What do you think of the new NHL rules?

Hi John. I'm glad to have come across your blog; I think we have quite a few overlapping interests, and I'm looking forward to exploring here further.

I regret how mercenary this sounds, but I'd invite you to check out my site and blog to see if our sensibilities overlap as much as our interests (and appearances) do. My design partner and I created the "visual edition" of Philip Yancey's "What's So Amazing About Grace" and Lee Strobel's "Case for Faith," as well as some other work at our portfolio site, which is linked to my site - http://petegall.com. My blog is also linked from there.

In addition to those items, my first book is coming out in the next couple of weeks. You'll see a bit about it at my site. It'll be available for sale at Amazon in a week or so, but if you'd be interested in reading it, I'd be happy to send you a free pdf of it - in hopes that our perspectives do indeed overlap enough for a dialog to develop between us, and that you may write about it/suggest it to others. If it's something you're interested in checking out, send an email from the Contact section of my site and I'll reply with the pdf.
