As I sat down today, I was happily struck by the fact that it takes very little for my business to come with me these days. Wireless, a power outlet, and coffee do the trick. Add a chocolate and macadamia nut cookie and you have found freelancer Nirvana.
But I digress.
The point is an update. What’s happening with me? Well, I’m working like a dog on my house. A lot is happening there, mainly because my neighbor, Jake, is a hard-working kid looking to make a buck to keep his hot-rod Civic on the road. The Klancher pad is looking up!
On the wrting front, things are happening as well. I’ve been doing radio interviews for How To Build Your Dream Garage, and had a good time talking garages with Joe Prin at 580am in Idaho and Bob Long at Motor Trend Radio. You can find the Motor Trend Radio podcast on iTunes, by the way. The episode before mine features a friend of mine, Hollywood car builder and inventor Eddie Paul. Check it out if you get a chance.
I have an interview with Bob Strong aka Handyman Bob on his show Around the House coming up on Saturday, July 26 at 1:00 p.m. PST.
I have a short (VERY short) piece and a small photo that ran in Men’s Journal this month. Check out page 34. Working with them was a pleasure—they are professional, hard-working and pay well and promptly.
On a fun note, my friend Stephen Regenold (The Gear Junkie) did a piece entitled, The World’s Scariest Roads for Travel and Leisure.com, and wrote about my adventures riding the Wilderness Road in the Bolivian Amazon and Brazil's Graciosa Trail.
