A chip off the old Bark
Thanks goes out to Etsy buyer Erica for sending in proof of this coincidental literary likeness alongside her recent purchase of “Bark Twain.” Her comments about how much it resembles her dog’s “surly eyebrows and mustache” are completed founded. I have a suspicion there’s a tiny, dog-sized cigar smouldering in an ashtray somewhere in the background.

F. Scott Fetchgerald- No Regrets
Upon learning that I was highlighted on Regretsy this week, a brief twinge of concern passed through me. Regretsy is the hilariously witty clearinghouse for all things gone horribly wrong in the world of art and crafting. Thanks to a shout out from Dane over at Monkey Minion Press, I learned I was part of Regretsy’s “Awesome Purchase of the Week” post. Thanks to April’s kind words of support and spotlight on F. Scott Fetchgerald, I spent the next 24 hours constantly fulfilling Etsy orders. Thank you Regretsy and all that came by to shop!
