Welcome to HumanImagineering's FleaMarket to the World and World's Creativity WebZine. Our website has two purposes:
Flea Market to the World is designed to host anything from a link, to a whole page dedicated solely for your use. Here you can sell your personal possessions, your wholesale or retail products, your talents, or your art. We want to help you sell, trade or exhibit your wares to attain your dreams using... a new kind of cooperative free enterprise...We invite those who would like to join us to do so and we do it inexpensively. Most access to our site is free, simply because we want to share with the rest of the world, our knowledge, our discoveries, our art and our hopes. But sometimes value requires an exchange, a transaction and to do that requires exactly that.
The World's Creativity WebZine showcases our creative talents. You will find poetry, short stories, photos, art, sculpture, jewelry, and any other creative endeavor... Some of these items are for sale... our vision is to share our talents and voices with the world. We want to have fun doing it, stay honest, stay true to our beliefs and inspire the creative spirit in all who come here.
We do pretty much anything creative, whether we sell it, give it away, or just admire it from a distance. We write, we paint, we carve rocks and assemble them into meaningful wearable art, we creatively offer our skills to one another either in trade, or for sale... in short, we produce something of value and we share it with others in whatever way we can.
What we will do to assure our visitors that they benefit from such exchanges is simple.
1. We require anyone who sells or trades their art, services, material possessions, or whatever else with our other visitors pay a nominal fee for administering their contact information.
2. We require the owner/seller of any product sold or exchanged on our website to warrant their product for repair or replacement for any failure of workmanship within one year of the exchange.
My name is Thomas B. Wallace.I started this website in 1998 to give myself a creative and productive outlet for my writing and other talents developed over the years. The site has gone through many changes since that date.I have persevered in the notion that creativity can and will be productive, fun and enriching, physically, emotionally and spiritually.
Let me introduce my friends who are contributing to this site....
Liz Radisich -joined Human Imagineering early on, agreeing to contribute humerous articles on an eclectic mix of subjects as well as assist me in ghost writing a novel I had a tight deadline on. I have known, and loved Liz, since we were both about 8 years old, but our lives diverged in High School and did not really reconverge until I made contact with her in 2003 just before our 40th High School Class reunion. Liz is a wonderfully funny woman who has found her Prince Charming in her current husband, Tom Radisich and you can find some of her work in the pages of our WebZine. We hope to get Liz to continue to contribute, even to edit one or more of our sections as time goes on. I am convinced everyone will love her.
Bad Tricksy Momma & The Flock - This flock shot of K Wren Grahame. She is another one of our resident humorists, bird fanciers and co-conspirators in the design and manufacturing of precious gemstone and metal jewelry creations. There is a story behind K Wren and her joining of Human Imagineering, which I will tell at a different time and a different place in this WebZine, but for now it is enough to know that she was my High School Sweetheart, my first wife and now my partner in life and love and all things business, lapidary, avian and creative. We will introduce our viewers to her opus The Saga of the Fabulous Miss Sneaky Pants which is her rendition of the interactive training sessions and life of her Goffin's Cockatoo... but later... meanwhile a quick shot of the afforesaid Fabulous Miss Sneakypants:
This picture is of The Fabulous Miss Sneaky Pants (type of bird?) and Bad Tricksy Mama leaves the question open as to who is mesmerizing who... I vote for TFMSP...
Cliff Mickelson - Cliff, whom I have known since my freshman year in high school has been my best friend for too many years to count. His journey, much like that of all of us, has been interesting, creative, far flung and sometimes dangerous. He toured for many years with Dolly Parton as the lead vocalist, lyricist and guitar player for Cliff Mickelson and Gunshy. He has been ranching rocks - mostly, although he does try to grow some apples and christmas trees - in Yakima, Wa while he raised two children. Now he is supervising the construction of a twenty story Condo project in Mazatlan, Mexico and is our Editor of the Glass Onion Conspiracy Section of our WebZine. His command of history, even his own, is encyclopedic and though his articles may sometimes run to the arcane, they never fail to be interesting...
Sue Vroomman -Sue is another high school friend with whom I have reconnected after 40 years, which in her case is way too long. Sue recently "retired" from her software support position in search of her free spirit. I am convinced she will find this in her creative efforts. She has agreed to edit our site's web design and to contribute articles on her own search for "what she wants to be when she grows up". Let's all help her find out it is as our web designer and editor...
Our mission is to provide creative people with a safe area to explore their own creativity and to exchange the products of their labors with others. To that end we warrant to provide sufficient general information to our visitors for them to reach satisfactory arrangements for such exploration and exchange.
