Burns Auto Parts is the oddly-named brainchild of Leslie Burns…that is, me. Since the 20th century, I’ve been an internationally known creative marketing consultant who specializes in working with commercial photographers. The name came from my grandfather’s old business–he did sell auto parts.
That said, I hardly do that work now. In 2011, I became a California-licensed attorney, representing creatives primarily in copyright matters, small business issues, and contracts. If you want to learn more, please go to my professional site: burnstheattorney.com.
Here, however, I will be much more personal. I’ve recently decided that I want to write more about life, generally. I’ve kind of lived one and would like to share what I’ve learned and what I may learn in the future. While I am on Mastodon for social media, this blog will be longer format stuff.
I suspect some of it will get very personal. I plan on discussing trauma, patriarchy, relationships of all kinds, as well as less fraught stuff like home repairs and riding my Triumph. I’m a “bad” Buddhist, so anything I offer us here is done with good intention but remember that I’m not a therapist or anything, so these are just my thoughts, my perspectives, my experience.
Still there? Then let’s go…
