For the last two years, I have designed primitive dolls and folk art sculptures (such as Edwin Drood and the Ghost of Marley) for Cordwood Cabin Primitives, a small online artistry whose work is featured on Ebay, Etsy, and other websites. In addition to editing blog posts and newsletters for their work, I spend my spare time gardening (including small-space organic beds) in the tradition of six generations of homestead ancestors and green thumb enthusiasts.
