One of my goals for 2026 is to sell more photos. To do that, I may need to fine-tune my appeal.

My subjects of interest are mainly landscape/seascape photos, with some macro and urban/architecture thrown in.

I'd like to explore portraiture and street photography, but that requires more energy and courage than I generally have on hand.

Typically all of the above falls under "Fine Art", an intimidating appellation.

What do you look for in decorative wall art?

Continuing my writing goal for 2026, I've posted a new entry on my blog.

"A Few Words on Adaptations" - that is, adaptations of books to films or TV series.

https://whateverthing.com/blog/2026/01/11/a-few-words-on-adaptations/

I also updated the visual style of the blog slightly, so it works better on mobile and is slightly easier to read on screens that are super bright.

One of my goals for 2026 is to write more. My first blog post of the year is now live:

"The Future Is Cooperative"

https://whateverthing.com/blog/2026/01/05/the-future-is-cooperative/

Wherein I discuss the co-op model as an alternative to corporations/startups, and share my experiences so far with some of the co-ops I am involved with.

sometimes
those that shout
national security
mean to protect
the people

but mostly
national security
is the rallying
cry to protect
the powerful

An Open Letter to Bill Gates:

Listen, Bill, you don't know me, but I used to be a big fan. That ended some time ago, of course, but it's still something I used to be.

I will admit that I haven't read your latest piece about your new approach to climate change, but I want to you know that some fascist idiots have been using it as justification to slag Harrison Ford.

Have some shame. You've earned it.

Sincerely,

Kevin.

PS: if you could toss a couple million dollars my way, I'd appreciate it.

I've turned my Open Letter into a short blog post. Go read it! Or don't. I'm not the boss of you. #ClimateChange
