May 21 04: further discoveries: everyday matters

Found a fabulous weblog today, via BoingBoing, and you need to see it. Everyday Matters is the weblog of Danny Gregory, a diarist and illustrator who lives here in NYC. The entry that I first read was about his favorite pens. And then I found this thing that he’d done for the Times about the F Train, in honor of the subway’s 100th anniversary, and it’s really quite lovely. Plus his drawings—and his writing, actually—make me want to go make something and if that’s not an indicator of the presence of the Muse then I don’t know what is.

If my uncle George kept a weblog, it would (possibly) be like this. It reminds me of him, anyway, which is yet another reason I’ll be coming back. Even if you don’t know my uncle, go forth and read it.

Commentary
