I am slooowly surfacing from a cold. It started Wednesday with a little sniffle and some chills, deteriorated rapidly overnight to gushing fountains of snot and long hours of shivering, hung on fiercely on Friday with some mild sniffle and a lot of cough, and is finally letting up today.
Haven’t spent much time in the studio as a consequence… today it was just enough time to put the finishing touches on some special orders, and that was it. Tomorrow I’ll try to get some more things done, and maybe mix up some reclaim clay while I’m at it. I have a prototype request for the “whore the shop out to tourists” campaign the boss lady is planning, and I need more clay.

My name is Maaike Charron, and I'm a potter in St. John's, Newfoundland. I started fiddling around with pottery in summer 2006, when I was told volunteering in the local clay studio would get me free studio time. I mostly taught myself, spending a lot of time poring over books, magazines and websites, and occasionally pestering the more advanced (but very helpful) potters around me with questions. After about two years, I decided I'd gotten good enough to go into business for myself. This blog, started after my first big craft fair, was created to document the process of becoming a wondrously succesful craftsperson. (Or it will document How Not To Do It. We'll see.)
