2) creation, 4) housekeeping

(last two weeks) moving to new apartment, garage sale, 15 hour days, and Bell's palsy. away from this log but some summary notes:
revised and arranged several sections of chapter 7 of ...fence posts rotting in the acreage...
editing of 3rd piece for book soundtrack.
wrote dream in notebook.
collected warning label from medication that warns of euphoric appreciation of life - or some such verbiage among dire warnings of suicide and organ failure.
file management of video and photographs taken recently.

DAILY ARTIFACT LOG - GOAL

My artifacts are not stillborn or arrested in early development so much by unresolved planning or structural defects but instead are slowly pinched off by small stoppers and momentum-less days. The creative effort not lost to hemorrhage but leached off by the routine everyday droplets. The late arriving echo audience hardly privy to the daily toil that piles the artifacts for a lifetime before their immediate awareness, appraisal, and acquisition. Deadlines aid the effort but are product-bound and necessarily presume an audience / patron / publisher / distributor / and such.
