2) creation, 4) housekeeping

worked on book 0. copied in remainder of handwritten pages, orientating early drafts on pages. officially the most difficult portion over - now hopefully the productive fun I had on the rear - writing introductions, scanning in alternative versions.
several hours sorting through photographs and organizing files on computer. collecting kid photos, images for ...fence posts rotting in the acreage..., and all scanned pieces. also backed up to external hard drive.

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.
