What you find here is stuff created and (occasionally) maintained as a personal hobby. I use the sites to experiment with different software and WEB site building techniques and to express my opinion on politics, religion, or any subject I feel like writing about. Most of what you find here has never appeared anywhere else, but some of the poems, photos, and articles were previously published. (Previously published work included here is usually presented in the original unedited versions and may be slightly different from published versions you may have seen in newspapers, anthologies, or on other web sites.) You may also find the photographs, art, poetry, and writings of others here. I've worked on the main site (RussPerry.com) off and on since 2000 and have rebuilt the site from scratch  6 or 7 times.  A lot of material may or may not be accessible at any particular point in time. This happens because of changes I make as I keep changing the structure and look of things or because I decide to try out new software. So if you saw something here when you visited in the past and don't see it now, it's probably still here and will probably be available again when I get it reformatted to match the current look and structure.
