Saying Goodbye in Paradise (Or Waiting for the Hurricane)

Saying Goodbye in Paradise (Or Waiting for the Hurricane)

I’m not sure if this is going to work. Or if it will make any sense let alone be entertaining to read. I guess you can call this an experiment. I am going to write about some recent events in my life unplanned, just off the cuff and see where it leads. And I’ll be doing it on the Internet so I’ll be leaving myself open for criticism which is always interesting. Now to be [...]

I Can Hear the Fireworks Up & Down the Line: 4th of July Memories

It is Independence Day. There is red, white and blue bunting hung from porches and windows. The air has the scent of smoke; it’s there in the background but always present. You almost don’t notice it...

Paul is a writer, artist and designer. He spends an inordinate amount of time on the Internet blogging about silly things and even more time making things up and then attempting to convince people they are proper stories. He also talks into microphones from time to time.

Who is Paul Matthew Carr?

He’s just a guy who likes to tell stories. He tells stories in paint and ink and words, in pictures and in letters. He believes that the world around us is not so complicated, it’s simply the stories we tell each other. He also apparently likes to speak in the third person.

Not really, I’ll stop that now.

But yeah, that’s pretty much it. I’m a writer and an artist. I like to watch baseball and I am deeply in love with sci-fi and fantasy. In real life I work as a Web developer & designer, I have five dogs and a beautiful daughter who dances. This network is a way to share my stories and interests in a (hopefully) entertaining way. It is a creative outlet. In time I would like this to grow, to be a place where others can contribute and share, debate & swap ideas. For now it is a place to highlight my achievements & shamelessly self-promote. But more than anything it is a place to tell stories. So I’d like to tell you a story. If you’d like to hear it I would love it if you took a moment to check it out.

What’s in a Name?

Paul Matthew Carr is also known as DaddyElk. DaddyElk is something my daughter called me when she was very young. And it makes me happy. It just so happens you can get the whole story here:
