Adventures with Glass and Fire

For those of you who used to read this site, it’s been a while since I updated. That’s going to change, though, and you can expect to see a lot more content in this little corner of the web. I’ve also made some changes, take a look after the jump. In no particular order:

• First, I’m now using the cutline theme for Wordpress, which is a really great piece of work. I’ll be customizing the look and feel a bit as we move along, but I think this provides a cleaner, more readable feel for the whole site.
• I’m going to be adding a few lampwork tutorials as I go along, little bits and pieces that I’ve picked up as I’ve learned a thing or two over the past couple of years. Don’t expect things to be shockingly awesome, but you should see one or two pieces a month that’ll be interesting.
• I’m changing the way I post my ebay auctions - the old method was just too much work, so you’ll be soon be able to see all my auctions, old, new started, finished, whatever, all in one category called, obviously enough, auctions.
• While lampworking is the biggest piece of my creative world right now, it’s not the only thing I have going. So, you can expect to see a little bit on writing, designing computer games, and general artsy crap on a more regular basis.
• Contests! That’s right, I’ll be adding some new contests to the site to keep folks interested and to help spread my work around to the rest of the folks on the interwebs. I haven’t decided exactly when contests are going to start, but I’ll have at least one a month and it’ll be pretty easy to enter.

This’ll be the last post for 2006, but in 2007 I intend to push out some new content on a regular basis, so stay tuned and look for some new work from me in the next 12 to 24 hours.
