As any artist knows, it can be easy to fall into the trap that there are only a limited number of ways - the traditional ways - to move your creative work out into the world. I know this trap well as I often fall into it on a daily if not hourly basis. But the soul-expanding reality is that there are as many ways as you can dream up - the wondrously non-traditional ways - to also “contribute a verse.”

The Stardust Project is my very small way of doing just that - embracing the possible in an industry often marked by the seemingly impossible. Just as stardust gently drifts down to Earth, my little (free!) poem cards + photo cards drift out into the world - hidden on grocery store shelves, tucked into magazines in waiting rooms, left on train seats - to be discovered by strangers simply going about their day. The project is as blissfully analog as it gets in our tech saturated world - small paper cards (you remember paper, don’t you?) that can be propped on a window sill or the dashboard of a truck. Friends and family help serve as my “distribution channels,” hiding the cards as they move about in their own worlds or travel to far flung places.

If you find one of my little pieces of stardust, I hope it puts a smile on your face or brightens your day a bit. That is payment enough for me. You can also drop me a line if you want and let me know which card you found and where you found it - that would be awesome too. Below are images (coming soon!) of each limited edition card.
