life with more cowbell

Continuing to ponder and create a list of goals for this new year (I’m big on lists). Setting up this blog was one of them. Yay me!

A lot of the stuff on my list I like to think of as “life housekeeping” and includes both literal and creative tasks. Reupholstering that 1950s love seat. Buying a pair of roller skates. Learning the Chorus speeches in Henry V (I bought the Oxford edition of the play, since it’s much easier to cart around than my Riverside Complete Works of Shakespeare or the Folio Complete Works). Like that.

Also designing tattoo #12. Have been doing so for some time, actually. It’s a variation on the Faerie Cats (Celtic) design – but it’s not quite right yet. You gotta be pretty circumspect about something that’s going to be etched on your body forever. In any event, it’ll be an even dozen then. No idea if it will be the last, though. Maybe. Maybe yes.

I’m Cate (she/her)

Thanks for stopping by life with more cowbell. This blog is about living my best life through the arts. I’ll be sharing short fiction & creative non-fiction, art & other stuff. The arts are for everyone & you can choose to share your art or make it just for you – have fun exploring & creating!
