The Ink Shot archive
From 7 May 2012 until 7 December 2021 The Ink Shot was the blog of Marcus Baumgart, an itinerant café writer, designer of buildings, animal-lover and day-by-day battling creative. This blog celebrates the practice of writing in cafés, writing fiction and non-fiction and being creative in general.
Marcus struggles to motivate without the happy white noise of lively conversation and hissing espresso machines.
Still alive and kicking (and writing)
Hello Inkshotters. Please forgive my absence, and the non-postiness of this post, but I have been busy setting up a new business and tending to a new blog that details my experience of it at the same time - you can check it out at archistartup.com. I have also been writing in earnest, recently for Landscape Architecture Australia as well as for Artichoke, as per usual. Time pressure has kept me out of cafes for writing purposes; I have been writing at home, so nothing to report from the world of the sputtering espresso. It's too cold to go out, at any rate! Check out the photo below if you don't believe me.
Anyhoo, I trust you are all well, and enjoying the tail end of the season, whether that be Summer or Winter in your neck of the woods. See you all soon.
