BBB's Blog
If you've ever wondered what it's like to run a magazine or how crazy my personal life is, be sure to read the behind-the-scenes peek at the daily trials and tribulations of running True West. Culled straight from my Franklin Daytimer, it contains actual journal entries, laid out raw and uncensored. Some of it is enlightening. Much of it is embarrassing, but all of it is painfully true.
In addition to this current journal, my early journal entries show the rocky road and money lost in the True West Business Timeline.
Bob's biography - The Unvarnished Truth
May 12, 2008
I'm on hold at the Heart Institute's Scheduling Department (11:40 A.M.). They were supposed to call me regarding my angiogram appointment but it's been five days and I fear I've fallen off their radar. After ten minutes I took the option of leaving a message only to get this message: "Mailbox full." So, back to the operator who agrees to write down my request and walk it over to the Scheduling Department. And all this, so they can poke a big tube with a TV camera on the end of it up my groin area. Needless to say, I have conflicted feelings about me TRACKING THEM DOWN!
Meanwhile, here's the cover final for the book illustration I did recently for the University of Illinois Press:
Pretty sweet, if I do say so myself. Book will be out in September.
"I have the world's largest collection of seashells. I keep it on all the beaches of the world. Perhaps you've seen it."
