Now

What I’m doing now

Updated:  2026 June 12

I’m currently focused on building a simpler, more intentional life while continuing the creative work that has always driven me.

Healthy Habits

My wife and I work out together five days a week for 60–90 minutes. She also handles most of our meals, using food we grow ourselves or source at the highest quality possible. This rhythm has become one of the most grounding parts of our days.

Engineering and Building

We’re in the process of moving to a remote property in the United States. We’ve designed and are now building a house that feels like a natural extension of the landscape and her unique garden vision (you’re invited to follow our full story with videos at YellowBirdFlying.com). Our home will be disconnected from traditional utilities: powered by solar, supplied by a well, and supported by an engineered septic system. Our goal is minimal long-term maintenance so we can spend more time on art, growing our own food, and living closer to the land.

Reading List

Here’s my reading list for 2026.  If you have recommendation, please let me know!

Creative Work

I’m actively creating across multiple disciplines:

    • Ankh Live — Writing and recording music (ongoing).
    • Concept — Photography book (writing, coming 2027).
    • Dee Railleur — Writing and recording music for another artist who is a painter (ongoing).
    • Echoes of Nyx — Writing and recording soundtracks (ongoing).
    • Fuzzy Thrills — Writing and recording fun, party-music (ongoing).
    • Kentucky Tom — Writing a book about how to buy and sell your house (editing, coming in 2026).
    • Love & War — Writing a book about my mother’s remarkable life: growing up on a farm in Europe during World War II, fighting the Russians as a teenager, and building a new life in America (writing, coming 2027)
    • Minimalism — Photography book coming in 2028 (outline complete, coming 2028).
    • Null Paradox — Continuing the interactive rock opera with new music, books, and live performances (ongoing)

Now Now Now

I borrowed this idea from Derek Sivers.  You should too!
