When working on Oddball, the hardest part is finding visual art to go with the poem.
That process is painful at times. Immensely so at times.
Most times I go with instinct.
Other times, I go to someone and see what they have.
In the case of Ed "Gentleman" Gault, I have someone who can create a photo inspired by whatever piece I'm publishing. He reads it, then he recreates a "scene" from the poem or piece of fiction, producing great results.
Ed stepped up in so many ways this year, with most of his photos published in Oddball being special requests.
He was also my go to for a secret project I was unable to get out this year. I may go into that later today, but suffice to say for now, I feel bad about that.
Between all the photos Ed recently dropped in my inbox and the secret project just around the corner, Ed and I will be working together for a long time, 2020 and beyond.
