Almost ready for update.

The new template is almost finished for the main page — just have to tweak some link colours, and I’ll be done. I’m still fighting with getting all style settings onto the css page, and not having it divided up on the main page and the stylesheet. Oh well. I’m not very good at this stuff…. At least the page looks more cheery than it did previously. I was going for a more professional look, but still fun and kinda whimsical.

Thinking of heading out to Starlight tonight, or maybe Jane Bond. I’ve been pretty good all week, and could use a couple of stiff drinks (maybe a good Cuban cigar or something)… The guy from the Orange Monkey will probably be spinning tonight (he does a great job with some serious disco tunes). The music really fits with the style of the club, what with all the vintage furniture and the way the place is laid out.

About This Site

As a guy who occasionally curates art shows and wrangles artists together, I often have to edit and post artist bios, profile pictures, and artwork images. This can be a problem, since many artists and writers aren’t used to selling themselves. Artists rarely know how to present their art for display in a brochure, and writers aren’t used to writing about themselves.

Writers often treat the bio like it’s an interview or something. Maybe like they’re having a conversation with you, the reader. While it may work sometimes, the most common way to write a bio is to write in the 3rd person.

I’m like those writers, and I’m talking to you directly, unlike the common way to do a bio. You should see my About page. It makes sense to me, since this is a bit which describes my blog’s website. When I get famous enough that I don’t have time to talk to you, I’ll have an intern write everything in 3rd person. Until then, you get to talk to me.

Like blogs of old, this one is a personal document of the comings and goings of me. Articles I’ve written, links I’ve posted, videos I liked, etc. Here, a first-person perspective is the way to go, at least for now. So, this is my site. I’m D. H. McKee, a sometimes artist, sometimes writer. Mostly just a guy on the internet.
