Hippie Van’s last-ever newspost

HippieVan at 12:00AM, Jan. 27, 2017



Hey everyone! And farewell, also.

Happy Holidays from the Great White North!

HippieVan at 12:00AM, Dec. 23, 2016

I claimed in last week’s newspost that I tend to work best in a nice quiet environment. Well, I’m currently testing whether or not that’s true. As you’re reading this, I’m in the middle of the woods in a lovely cabin with a fireplace and ...

Peace and Quiet, or Buzzing with Activity?

HippieVan at 12:00AM, Dec. 16, 2016



What is the best atmosphere to create in? This applies to art, of course, but also to just about anything you might be working on independently.

Some of my friends seem to be able to work with limitless distractions around. Fairly regularly I go over to my friend’s house ...
