These are links to the sites of friends of mine and some people I wish were friends - all are either people I draw inspiration from or whose work interests me. Right click and open the following bolded links or text in a new browser window.
These are in no particular order, so, if your name is presented below, please do not be offended at your "placement". I draw inspiration of one sort or another from each of them.
