Patreon, Ko-Fi, New Book Launch at VPL
2025-05-22 15:53 Hey all!   For those few of you who do watch this page--my new book, my first full-length work, Vancouver Observed Through a Glass Window, will be launching at Writer's Showcase at the downtown VPL on the 27th. Show starts at 6:30PM, and its up on the top floor. Myself and free other writers will be readying; there will be a Q&A; and I will have plenty to sell. Come on down if you're at all curious!   Also, I've got a Ko-FI and a Patreon both properly running. I figure its about ...
Update
2025-04-16 10:37 An update for this long-abandoned website:   I had been busy with applications, then I was sick for quite a bit, and then I got accepted into Oxford; and so then I was busy leaving my job at the LDB and starting out preparing for that full-time in these months prior to my starting there. The spring is in full-swing and the world is warming up; things are, roughly, looking up. Although I am buried under a weight of trials, some of which, sometimes, feel insurmountable. Looking for funding; gett...
News on Publication
2024-05-12 17:33 Aside from all that below--   Cafe Noir Poems (I) is launching on September 1st. I will be going to Montreal for that. More details closer to the time, but that's the day. I'm bringing a friend; it is his birthday.   I am working on getting another book, Vancover Observed Through a Glass Window, self-published. Before the end of the year, for sure, hopefully over the summer but I don't want to rush it. It has poetry in it, but it's nearly half prose. Call it a multi-genre mem...
Cafe Noir Poems! (January 13, 2024)
2024-01-14 09:38 Another nine hour shift today, so not terribly exciting. Except for one thing: I heard back from Cactus about Cafe Noir Poems (I) today—they want it! I’m getting published again!   I will probably be more excited later once I’ve had time to process on a day when I am not working a nine hour shift. About that: story was empty again, I was miserably cold. I ate too much food too fast on my fifteen minute break. They also gave me a plaque congratulating me for five years of work there. Looking at...
Montreal content
2023-12-11 15:31 Okay, so there's a ton more Montreal stuff that's still rough or otherwise unfinished, which I'm not posting for that reason. I'll slide it in place when it's done, and post an update when I do.    Yes, I overdid it. I basically have a novella's worth of content from that trip.
Oops
2023-12-11 11:24 Ah. It seems that I put those first few entries in the wrong order, since I was just pasting into the template. I might attempt to fix that later. Otherwise, please note that the four entries below here are in the reverse order. Oops.   Update as of Dec 31: fixed it. The Montreal stuff is still out of order though, and I'll leave it like that until I'm done posting it all.
This will eventually be a writing blog
2023-12-10 13:10   This will eventually be a writing blog   But there's nothing here yet. I'm just setting up the template and, because I don't really know how to set up a website, I'm doing that slowly. I already accidentally deleted the thing once, and I don't want to do anything awful again.    This "scribbles" subpage (blog; the website builder app calls it a blog) will become the home of all my social media posts, the poems and the excerpts and the little diary entries and etc. I wa...
