	[01.26.12] Posted by: Travis From: Edit Bay Hey, how about a New Podcast? It features me reading a couple of pieces that more or less explain why it has been so long since I published a podcast. Enjoy!

	[01.05.12] Posted by: Travis From: The Workshop A highly enjoyable workshop with Chris Hamm was had this evening. For me (at least), the workshop was a great kick in the pants to write something new and was coupled with highly valued feedback from a fellow writer. We'd love to have you at the next one, which will take place 1/16 @ 2 Central on G+ hangout. Accepting submissions until 1/13! Do it!
	[01.02.12] Posted by: Travis From: The Office Today is the cut-off for submissions for our first writer's workshop. We are doing it Jan 5 @ 6 Central via Skype. If you'd like to join, e-mail social@beautifulmistakes.com and we'll get in touch. More writing in 2012!
	[12.27.11] Posted by: Travis From: Around Resolving to write more in 2012? Start the year off right; join Chris Hamm and I for an on-line writer’s workshop Jan 5 @ 6PM Central. Leave a comment or e-mail social@beautifulmistakes.com if you are interested – any and all are welcome. We are accepting writing submissions up until Jan 2. (Bring a friend!)
	[12.21.11] Posted by: Travis From: Around Got a piece of writing that you'd like to workshop? Join Chris Hamm and I for an on-line writer's session Jan 5th (around 6 PM Central)! If you're interested, let us know: comment below or e-mail social@beautifulmistakes.com and let us know if you prefer to use Skype, Google+ Hangout, conference call, etc. I'll post info on how to join when we have that ironed out. All are welcome - bring a friend, feel free to join even if you didn't RSVP. If you want a piece reviewed, please get in touch by Jan 2nd so the group will have time to compile, distribute and read the submissions before the meeting. Hope to see you there!
	[11.30.11] Posted by: Travis From: The Office A piece that our friend Chris Hamm did for our first issue of the magazine. I try to read this anytime I don't feel like working or writing, though I (obviously) have yet to fully internalize it. Enjoy!
	[09.26.11] Posted by: Travis From: The Lab Later than I would have liked, but here is this week's PodCast none-the-less! I talk about what we are currently working on (the second issue) and what we hope to be working on in the near future (also the second issue). Enjoy!
	[09.18.11] Posted by: Travis From: The Office Preview episode, featuring a conversation I had with Brandon Hodge, owner of Monkey See Monkey do in Austin, TX. I spoke to Brandon for an upcoming article about local bookstores and how they affect their communities. Enjoy!
	[09.11.11] Posted by: Travis From: The Office This week, partially prompted by Sept 11 retrospectives, I read a piece entitled 'Time Capsule' to you. Kind of a short one; hope you enjoy anyway. Peace.
	[09.04.11] Posted by: Travis From: The Office This week, Friend of the Cause Chris Hamm joins us to do a few readings and discuss. As conversations with Chris tend to do, we venture all over the place. This episode isn't explicit, but there is some language towards the end, and some discussion about drinking, so maybe listen through this before you play it for your kids. Enjoy!
	[08.28.11] Posted by: Travis From: The Office Our latest podcast episode is our first Charity Spotlight, featuring Marisa Butler talking about her efforts with Coalition for the Homeless. It can be found Here. Enjoy!
	[08.21.11] Posted by: Travis From: The Lab Here's this week's podcast; wherein we listen to a snippet of a conversation with our second issue's featured artists, Ida Hoffmann. Ida has lots of experience with photography, photo journalism, newspaper -- all sorts of stuff -- so I recently spoke with her to discuss her photographic philosophy. Enjoy!
	[08.15.11] Posted by: Travis From: The Office Beautiful Mistakes podcast: Now available in iTunes here </nerd joy>
	[08.12.11] Posted by: Travis From: The Lab Today we are ready to announce our next big project; a podcast companion to the BeauMist Magazine. So THAT's what it was for The podcast will feature much of the same content from future issues of the magazine but will go deeper in depth with the artists, sometimes bringing in other media that we just can’t capture on the printed page. The cast will also give you a seek peek at whatever it is we are working on for upcoming issues. We haven’t hammered out an exact schedule, so releases could be a little erratic for a while here, but the general idea is: *1 month of previews of magazine content before the release of a new issue *1 month of a previews of companion content when the issue is released *1 month with the full content As an added bonus, future issues of the magazine will have a code (or something) in them that you can use to unlock the full versions of the content a month before they would release in the regular schedule. We’ve submitted the cast to iTunes and Zune for review, but have no idea how quickly that process can be finished. So, when we have more news, we’ll let you know. For now, you can check out the first episode Here, or you can manually add the RSS feed to your software of choice using this address (http://www.beautifulmistakes.com/BeauMist_PCFeed.rss) Happy listening!
	[08.10.11] Posted by: Travis From: The Office Announcement pending... Check back 8/12
	[08.07.11] Posted by: Travis From: The Field Visual Confirmation: Issue 1 on the shelves now at A Real Bookstore (awesome)
	[07.27.11] Posted by: Travis From: The Office If you happen to be on the Google+ thing, add us to one of your circles. Or, if you'd like to be on G+. we have a few invites we can send. social@beautifulmistakes.com
	[07.26.11] Posted by: Travis From: The Lab Another awesome conversation this evening, this time with Ida Hoffmann (Ya)
	[07.23.11] Posted by: Travis From: The Lab Some great conversations with Chris Hamm and Marisa Butler this weekend--for a project we are not quite ready to announce just yet ; ) (But soon!)
	[07.22.11] Posted by: Travis From: The Car Dropped a stack of magazines off at A Real Bookstore. Hopefully, they should have them processed and out for your perusal next week. Love those guys
	[07.15.11] Posted by: Travis From: the library For those of you near the Dallas/Plano area (as we are), we are having a small sort of event today. Earlier this morning, I dropped off a handful of copies of the first issue of the magazine at three nearby libraries. The first few people to visit the locations can pick a one up for free. The others can take some time to enjoy some unique offerings at each library. The locations are: Frisco Public Library Located inside the Frisco City Hall building, this is a really nice library with a couple levels of books, quiet study rooms, and an impressive dvd collection. Outside you can also enjoy some public art displays. Hopefully, the magazine will be added to their collection soon. Haggard Library A pretty large location near the middle of Plano. It has some nice architecture and a rather large selection. Schimelpfenig Library Kind of hard to pronounce, but quite a nice location. If you get tired of books, you can play Kinect or Wii during the day or go for a bike / run on the nearby Chisholm Trail Enjoy
	[07.12.11] Posted by: Travis From: The Lab A little later than I had hoped, but our on-line storefront is now up (and even seems to be working for me). Check out the website, hit the 'Store' link on the left, and have at it. If there seem to be any issues, please e-mail orders@beautifulmistakes.com for assistance. Note: you don't *have* have an account to order, but it sure would help us track you down if there are any issues. Cheers!
	[07.10.11] Posted by: Travis From: The Office How about a spiritual short story from Chris Hamm this Sunday Morning? (Making me practice writting in Hebrew again)
	[07.08.11] Posted by: Travis From: The Mail Box Look what we found! Neat
	[07.04.11] Posted by: Travis From: Sweet Home, USA Happy 4th of July! Enjoy a new poem by Chris Hamm and consider unity along with independence today
	[07.01.11] Posted by: Travis From: Update Magazines shipped today (Yea!)
	[06.21.11] Posted by: Travis From: The Office Posted a preview version of the first issue of the magazine for your perusal; it's really just to give you an idea about what is in the full version, and show you the general layout/design. Go take a look at it here Hope you enjoy!
	[06.17.11] Posted by: Travis From: A place of gratitude The First issue is finally done and will be on the way to the printer’s shortly! Many thanks to this issue’s contributors: Chris Hamm, Chris Jacobsen, Dan Rowe and Jesse Dowell. And a special thank you to those whose support helped keep my energy levels high and drove me to finish it all off: Danielle Rowe, Tom Rowe, Judy Rowe, Sharon Knobbe, Courtney Hooker, Ida Hoffman, Marisa Butler and Megan Lange.You guys rock! As soon as the prints come in, I’ll have another update of how you can get your hands on a copy. Until then.
	[06.03.11] Posted by: Travis From: Vacation While cleaning out closets for house guests, found a handful of Notebook Sketches and one Original that I posted a day or so ago. Enjoy
	[05.30.11] Posted by: Travis From: The Lab Here are the submission process steps I mentioned a few days ago... It's not that challenging, but I am a sucker for flowcharts. Enjoy.
	[05.29.11] Posted by: Travis From: The Office I met John Gibson, an independent writer, yesterday and spoke to him about his historical novels; adding this book about the Tuskegee Airmen to my list. Lots of his source materials are included after the narration. Enjoy
	[05.25.11] Posted by: Travis From: The Lab Finally got my act together and coded a way for you to submit your work to us directly, which I first thought about doing probably 3 years ago. I suspect this will be infinitely easier than sending us an e-mail with a lot of attachments. It seems to work for me, but I haven't slept much the last few days, so the likelihood is quite high that I forgot something important. I'll probably post an overview of the submission/review process tomorrow. Cheers.
	[05.22.11] Posted by: Travis From: The Lab Isn’t it just the *best* feeling spending an hour or two pouring over lines of code trying to find an error, ultimately to find out you neglect one (1) apostrophe? (it does mean that site updates are on the way at least)
	[05.20.11] Posted by: Travis From: Office Fun Fact: Business cards make you look more professional. (I have no idea how to use up all 500 of them)
	[05.17.11] Posted by: Travis From: The Office Changed up the [Sound] section so that the .mp3's are embedded in the page... which might have been happening for you anyway... but, you know. More interesting updates soon
	[05.07.11] Posted by: Travis From: The Office Wow. As they say, time does seem to fly. Really hard to believe that it's been a whole year since Beautiful Mistakes officially became a Not-for-profit organization. Looking at the year in review, I certainly wish we could have done more than just post (presumably) obnoxious updates in your news feeds; but with no money to speak of and little extra time to devote thanks to the newest Rowe it is reasonably hard to do more. Anyway, our 2nd year is definitely shaping up to be much more interesting; we finally got our hands on some funds this week so, at long last, we are going to put out our first issue of the magazine (hopefully by the end of this month). The hard copy version will be available first, followed by an e-book format afterwards. More details as to where you can obtain those later. We will also be pursuing our tax-exemption status, because those deductions are just so damn satisfying when April rolls around. Some other ideas are kicking around, but are not quite ready to be revealed. Just be assured that they would be completely awesome if they ever get further than the planning stage. So, thank you for not un-subscribing during a year of infrequent updates. We will do better to entertain you this time around.
	[05.01.11] Posted by: Travis From: Home Small update to the profile creation page. Trying to get the gears back in motion. Slowly but surely.
	[02.08.11] Posted by: Travis From: The Office We have an updated address for FaceBox; now you can just go to www.facebook.com/BeautifulMistakes ... which is... easier? (kinda neat)
	[02.07.11] Posted by: Travis From: The Office An early Valentine’s gift, which is totally awesome, if I do say so myself: Much, much bigger version here. (now I have the set)
	[01.26.11] Posted by: Travis From: The Lab Added another Colorization today. This one is based on one of my favorite arcade games of all time. Enjoy!
	[01.24.11] Posted by: Travis From: The Lab Don't know what possessed me, but added a new Colorization, which, of course, can be viewed in my Colorization section (An oldy but goody)
	[01.21.11] Posted by: Travis From: The Lab Spent a little time today cleaning up some script that was lazing around in the background.... nothing major; you will probably not notice. In spite of that, I seem to have a renewed energy for this project; I won't go into detail as that energy could disappear just as quickly tomorrow. ANYWAY, I happened across some images I had captured from our whiteboard. Chris Hamm (possibly possessed by pharmaceuticals) made a small series of highly philosophic tableaus in the 'web paint' medium. Please to enjoy here. Hoping for more news soon
	[01.02.11] Posted by: Travis From: The Office Looks like Santa brought us some inspiration this year: Also, it totally classes up the place. Here's the (very large) source picture for the print. Later.
	[12.27.10] Posted by: Travis From: The Office A posting long overdue; as too many of my postings are… Though BeautifulMistakes seems to have fallen off the map, it has not removed itself from my mental real estate. Trust that I have not given up on the idea; instead its bandwidth has been redirected to growing concerns. Namely, to this growing concern. Lately, many a day is spent putting together cribs and strollers, watching sonograms, or attending child birth classes. Many a night my thoughts have turned to the malnourished magazine; my body confined to non-action by conflicting schedules, lack of energy and sleeplessness. All this to say—though it is likely obvious already—I am hitting pause on BeautifulMistakes until next year. Our young son is predicted to join us in February. Hard to tell whether paternity leave will be a boon of time to dedicate to the creative or animation further suspended here. Regardless, I will strive to leave a few things whenever I can. Happy New Year
	[07.08.10] Posted by: Travis From: Out/About Apparently, ISSN's don't take too long to process... so, cross that off the list.
	[07.02.10] Posted by: Travis From: The Lab Important learning moment of the day: an ISBN identifies your book and costs $$$, and ISSN identifies your periodical and is free. (And takes 6 - 8 weeks for LOC to process)
	[06.26.10] Posted by: Travis From: The Lab Chris Hamm has supplied a couple new and tasty bits of literature for the upcoming inaugural issue of the magazine. I wanted to hold off until the issue hits shelves to post them, but his new poem "The Gulf" is quite timely. Check it out in his Literature section. Consider it a free preview.
