Friend, fellow ceramicist, and occasional idea-sounding-board Jason Holley has a blog. Finally. I (and who knows how many other people) have been bugging him to put together some kind of online presence for aaaaaaaages. And now he has one. I feel it’s only fair, after the amount of teasing, poking, and outright fist-shaking I’ve been directing towards him, for me to pass on the link.
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.)
