Discuss with me on G+; Listen to me on Brian’s podcast (It’s a whole menu of options!)

What does Dutch cake have to do with this post? Absolutely nothing. But who wouldn’t want some Candycake if they could get it?!

Hello! Just popping in with a pair of news items here. (I’m writing this in the voice of Eddie Izzard, but you probably can’t tell. Right.)

OK, so first (reverting to my own voice now), a quick follow-up to our discussion about Google+. I’ve started a little project of posting one discussion topic per week over there. This week, we’re talking about how you set your own boundaries around what you do and don’t share on your blog. When the going gets tough in your personal/creative life, what does that look like in your online persona?

There are a lot of interesting perspectives happening over there – want to join in?

…And second, I had a great time being a guest on the Brian R. Jonescast this week. Brian’s a ceramics artist with an academic background, and we had a deep conversation on the differences between his perceptions of the indie craft movement, and my perceptions of the fine craft movement.

You can find the show on iTunes. Pull out your plastic canvas project and settle in! (I know you have one stashed somewhere secret.)

And with that (reverting back to Eddie here), Cheers, Mates.
