Did a double-take when I saw this EXIT sign today. Took a picture and fiddled with it to illustrate what I saw at first glance....

More kindle fetishism posted to my flickr page. #iphoneography #ebook
I've continued to play with photos of my Amazon Kindle over the 4th of July weekend. There's 16 shots up right now; I'm aiming for about twenty, maybe twenty-five, or so.

“Scream in Hell” — a dark painting by @JustAfterSunset

Kindle Experiments
I've begun another series of weird photos -- "Kindle Experiments" -- over on my flickr gallery. Just having fun messing around with shots of my amazon kindle. Let me know what you think. Plans are afoot with publishers of my backlist to produce ebook versions of my novels and collections in the year to come. Keep an eye on my Amazon profile if you're looking for something new for your kindle, nook, kanookiedindle, et cetera.

Experimental Photography of the @amazon #Kindle
Over on my flickr gallery, I've started posting a new series of experimental photos with my amazon kindle e-book reader. Above is a treatment of the Emily Dickinson screensaver... will be posting more directly on flickr. And here's a really interesting discussion by Jason Gignac, who points out some problems inherent to the Dickinson portrait in itself.
