I'll say this up front, I am Pansexual, and I'm married to a Lesbian woman. If this bothers you, you might want to find another blog, because my wife can and will come up frequently, especially as she is another designer involved in GlenCastle. See, I'm the Glen, she's the Castle. So yeah, if this bothers you off you go, I wish you no ill will, may you have a nice life.
Now, GlenCastle. I am from Watkins Glen, NY, and I'll likely mention that often as inspiration, so that's where the Glen came from. My wife Chris is a fan fiction writer of Harry Potter fan fiction. She has original characters who live in a home called Stonecastle. So now you know where the Castle part came from. As we both have a hand in the creating of items for GlenCastle Designs, it seemed only right to include us both in the name.
Right now most of what you'll find here is updates on current crochet projects, amusing bits about my Emotional Support Animal (a Great Dane mix named Leo) and his cat buddy Sebastian, general commentary on various crafts, and probably a few nods to my niece Lina, who is currently enrolled in Savannah College of Art and Design, and is quite the painter, or her sister Abi, who is still in high school but with a bright future of her own I'm sure.
What you will not find.
Politics. No way, no how. I spent over a decade living in the DC Metro area, and I have had my fill of politics thank you very much.
Religion. Nope, not happening. I'm an Atheist, but as long as you don't use your faith to hurt others I have no problem at all with others who are religious, I just won't mention it here other than in reference to a holiday like Christmas or Easter or what have you.
Guns. I will keep my views on guns to myself, and I request that everyone else who comes and comments does the same. Guns have no place in my art, and never will.
That's about it. So, welcome again, now, onward to the art!
