I’ve re-arranged a few sections from my original posting of these excerpts to emphasize both the excerpt and my new added commentary in this new series. My goal is to post M-F each week, with exceptions due to weather or other unexpected happenings, positive or negative, lol! 😊

Commentary on 02.16.21
Already, at the beginning of the story, I shift from the contemplative metaphysical musings in my prev post to a suggestion of how the artist blends the language and methods of art with his love for this one woman 😊 And right away the dual thread of art and love, reflecting and influencing each other without boundary, is set for the entire novella. And with that, a question. Would an expected, desired, but uncertain future unfold. For isn’t the future, no matter how trusted or planned, simply that which hasn’t yet happened, something hoped for, wished for, planned for, and – no harm done if so – prayed for? In effect, despite the shift from my 1st excerpt, continuing the metaphysical? That’s what, in the process of living, the characters in the story will exam. And I think, answer.

To make posting my series of excerpt tweets for my novella, The Old American Artist, easier for me to post regularly (Mon-Fri), and quicker for folks to see and read, I created a reference post/page with “lots” of info that can easily be reached there 😊

That includes info on or about :

• Intro to this series
• Tweet itself on Twitter
• The image art for my cover, my painting, San Antonio Riverwalk
• About my art and it’s relationship to this literary fiction work
• The numbering system I’m using in the tweets (and why)
• Hashtag #OldAmericanArtistExcerpts – why I use it in my tweets

Thanks so much! ❤️
