Absentee Landlord

Sorry it's been so long since the last post Shoppers, it seems like it's been ages since we've spoken, I've been working on three or four things at once and finishing some commissions and there just hasn't been time.
To quickly answer some viewer mail, Tracy from Ann Arbor asks, "Long time reader, first time emailer, I love the Shoppe,but I just have to know, what do you look like Andrew Shay ?
Well Tracy, this is what I look like right now (see picture above) .
Actually I'm kidding Tracy, this is where the I sit all day, as you can see I'm just finishing new work for the "metaball" online zine that will be shown at the Starbucks at Queen and Claremont through the month of February. This is a new series called "Small Towns" and we hope you and your cat "Black Magic" can make the trip from Michigan to check it out and have a cup of tea.
I promise you if anyone ever takes a flattering picture of me I'll be sure to post it here, believe me I've tried, I think my camera is stuck on the Ugly setting.
I also have to admit I've been slow to post since I started reading E.L Doctorow's "the March" I've been reading certain passages over and over again. And I've been distracted by Ghostface Killah's "Fishscale" which I've been playing over and over again (track 3 will make you dance like a fool,thanks Shiv). And watching "Studio 60" on the web, I have to tip my hat to Sorkin for the episode "the After Party (episode 6)" it made me all teary eyed - yes TV made me cry, but before you laugh you watch it and see what happens, that was some excellent writing. Back to work, don't be afraid to send more questions my way Shoppers!

God bless, Ellis (welcome to the world little man), The Walker/Martins and the drunk guy who got caught in the chimney in Bracebridge

all the best,

Andrew Shay Hahn
