What's better than beer and books? How about having a beer with the authors that wrote those books. This Saturday, Nov 8, I'll be at Kitchesippi Brewery with 6 other local authors.

If you're looking for something to do today (Sunday Oct 26), I'm at a craft show at Bell Sensplex in Kanata all day.
You can also check out the new "grass" in the indoor soccer field. Oooo, so cushiony.

I was at a presentation at #CapitalCrimeWriters by #JohnChristmas, about going from banker in Latvia to whistle blower of organized crime. His experiences are the basis of his thriller, #KGBBanker. Now, with several death threats he keeps his location secret. But you can find him on social media.

I walked until I found a creek. When I bent to take a drink, a girl who looked like me in the surface of the water said, "Hey! You're more awesome than you think!" I took her home; she lives in the mirror and continues to give me pep talks.
The coming of age ceremony is simple. It's not a test, not anything you can fail. You go out into the Wilds, and when you find what speaks to you, you bring it home. Some forget it next day, others keep it as a talisman for the rest of their life. What do you find?
