I've long been reading this forum and lovin' it and the beyond cool ideas that a good many of its users have. So...I figured it was about time to get up off my arse and get an actual account. I'll post a few of the "constructed-from-roadside-trash" cabins I've built soon.

In the meantime, after WELL over a year of illustrating and writing, I've now finally completed (through tiny yellow house press) my own small houses/cabins book "Humble Homes, Simple Shacks, Cozy Cottages, Ramshackle Retreats, Funky Forts- And Whatever The Heck Else We Could Squeeze In Here." Clockin' in, coffee-table-book size, at just over 100 pages filled with avalanches of sketches and redneck-thrift/yankee ingenuity projects and ideas, I'm now selling a small initial run of these hand assembled books (you can find all the details on the blog/post).
Inspirationally, the books owes good parts of its existence to the work of Lester Walker, David and Jeanie Stiles, D.C. Beard, Dan Price, and Lloyd Kahn. All in all, I'm a small-house book junky, and after the well started drying up a little (I bought and read all the decent ones I could find) I decided to write my own.
Anyway, thanks for looking, and I'll get some small house photos up soon! Happy belated new years to all!
