Bodies of work/ Bodies at work
With the card game done and delayed, due to testing and timing concerns (what kind of designer would i be, if i didn’t delay my game til holiday season 12/21/21). My focus will be shifting to finishing up loose ends and starting some new ones. Buddy has transcribed a few books, so i’ll be posting those shortly. Want to jump into film and/or animation in the coming months. I want things to move. Moving is good. Especially now that i can be still too and dance again.
Caught in a crossroads of many artistic interests and pursuits. Feelin’ things out and also taking a small break in ravenous creaiion to work on my body and enjoy some happy times. So much to do eh? Ain’t that the modern mantra. Trying my best and when not, i’m still trying. Just enjoying things too. Fuck it!
Here’s a small taste of content coming. Lots of Poetry books on the way. This one was written over two years, about two years ago. A lot of unsorted moments in-between other poetry books and other.projects. Didn’t know what to call it, so i called it a bunch of things.
Enjoy!

Obsession
Been perfecting the game in preparation for launch. Fine touches, formatting, editing and extensive organizing. Never put so much time into anything like this before. Excited to hold the finished final product and fucking move on. Really pumped to go back to filming, continuing my novel series, editing 100 different projects already done and/or whatever comes calling next.
Nearing the first finish line. This race is nearly complete, but the circuit is just getting started. Excited to ride hard, drive fast, go far and hopefully win. Whatever that means.

Perfectionism
Been pretty reluctant to show any unfinished work and at the same time, been working bigger then ever. March should bring the major releases I’ve been working crazy hard on for nearly a year.
A lot of great things aligning right now. New year seems promising. Maybe it can be perfect.
November 2020
Silent strands. Musical strains
Been another floaty uncertain few months. A lot of projects and work done, so that’s cool. Just gotta edit refine and release.
Trying to come back down to earth after some hardcore intense creative binges and manic movement. Trying to come back up. Rise and shine.
Been a odd beautiful melancholy time. A end to the cycle. Always figured the world would end in 2021. Praying for better beginnings. Lightning in a bottle.
The novel is finished, the card game is being printed, the second comic collection comics are complete and Blue Book and Yellow Book are ready for transcription. Come the end of lockdown or March (if it never fucking ends) I’ll be marketing like a madman and focusing more on outreach, then purely creating.
Make it. Then make it happen. Then hopefully make it big.

Quitting Quitting
Some horror. Some horoscope. A lot of cards, movies, yellow and airports.

Return to rain
I miss cigarettes. But eh they dont do well in rain and i probably shouldnt return to em. Oyvey!
In response, heres a micro visual story and a illustrated poetic short story. Some humble offerings, while progress is made on my dark romance novel and fantasy card game.
Cool stuff comin’.

Mental stillness
A lot of setbacks pertaining to adventure plans, but it’s given me time to work on and finish up some projects.
Got a novella for ya’ll this month, while i finish up my novel series i’ve been working on for many many years. Excited to release it soon, with some finishing touches.
Got some other surprises coming soon too, as i re-acclomate to domestic life again. A new career in a new town.
Write on!

Paths and tolls
What a strange chaotic time the last couple months have been. The plague shits pretty weird too.
Wowee!
Still in a state of wandering for another couple months., have had a couple weeks to rest and work on important shit (and some other stuff). Been surviving and humbled by the road to home. wherever the fuck that is, but the journey has been fun. Sort’ve.. Not really…
Got some new stuff up and hoping to release a couple more things before i dissapear again. Got a lot to do when i get back, but once i get a stable place for a few months. Expect a revolution in works. A cure to the corona. Every fucking thing you’ve ever wanted… and more.
2021 baby!!

Hell
Some of the worst days of my life. Sleepless, homeless, old and cold. So many years to regret and no place to rest. No dreams. Not even tired ones.
May 2020
Novel/ Coronavirus
Cabin fever, finishing up classes and my first novel. Also been working on a card game and preparing my body and backpack for the PCT.
Thats pretty much it. Meditative quiet and serene forest lake stuff. Small and lonely trailer/house. It’s been humbling and productive. A little eerie with all the plague shit, but the peace here is something else. Just wish i could really stay.

Gaming The Gamer
Not much else to do. Moved out of the Hellhole vortex that is Olympia. Couch surfing with a few weeks at a cabin soon. Excited to be stable, but excited to be surviving too. Jobless and homeless is rather uncertain. Making a game though. Should be cool. Playing a lot of em. Meh, kinda boring, but yeah. Its all goddam game. Fuck simulation theory!

Well Shit…
Yeah.. Fuck. No job, bouncing out of this town and hoping for the best. Weird times.

Burnin’ the old. Kindling the new.
Been experimenting with new mediums and forms of expression. The shop is up, but will be truly live come 2020. Got some paypal and tech stuff to figure out. Physical copies and PDFs of the many books i’ve been crafting during the last year, will be finally available in their final form.
Thanks to anyone whose continued to follow this wild year of recovery. Hoping to make it all worth it in the coming year. The hole is nearly climbed.
In the mean time, drop by my live gaming/art streams. Midnight on weekends and random times during the week. Follow on Twitch at @cjttv9.
Also will be whoring myself out on social media and personalizing the cryptic nature of my presence. Expect twitter, FB and more instagram action. Networking and distribution, is the name of the game these days. Got a massive backlog of art and works that need to be released, before i move on to yet another project or mode of creativity. That and making money at what i love, is where i need to be. I’ve come to terms.
Consider supporting this work, by buying books, following the media and simply telling your weirdo friends.
Thanks again,
– CJT

Freshness
What a wild and tumultuous time. Many plans scrapped, recycled and refurbished into new design. So many hours of content, deleted on the site.
Focusing on tangibility, with the near future. Investing in some things to take this work to the next level.
Come 2020 this domain will change names and likely its general activity. Got 6 books finished and ready to distribute.
Many other projects are on the way and others, just needing to be assembled. Excited for my art to be available outside a screen.
Hope you enjoy!

This is dope!
