This post goes out from The Mods to The Rockers who lived on Stonehenge. You know who you are.

Stand up and be counted, Gen Xers!
They Say It's Your Birthday /
On today, my birthday, I’d be thrilled if your evening work was accompanied with some music from my playlist that serves as a companion to my soon-to-be-self-published novel, Your Silent Face.
More news on that front very, very soon!
Find me on Spotify and follow today.
Small Work Works /
I like to work big, and in a square format. Unless we’re talking really big—then I like a rectangular format.
Occasionally, I get on a jag and make some small work. In an effort to create some more affordable options, I’ve added some smaller pieces to my shop.
Check it! Use the “Original Art for Sale” link below.
There’s a lot of content at yoursilentface, and I’m working on creating more.

Three must-follow playlists in my new Playlists section.
This playlist is a companion to my 80s coming-of-age novel, Your Silent Face. Stuart Page is a protagonist obsessed with 80s New Wave and Ian Curtis, the lead singer of Joy Divison. All of the tunes and bands in the playlist get a mention in the novel. The novel is available on Amazon.

So, Split Enz called to say, “Hey, what’s up? Why aren’t we included on the playlist?” Fair point, we concluded. We’ve added seven tracks. Hopefully that makes up for things. My personal favorite is “I Hope I Never.”
We’ve also added “Duel,” by Propaganda. Remember that one?!?!? “The first cut won’t hurt at all/The second only makes you wonder.” Wow. Not sure. Great track.
