Boardwalk Footsteps: Memoir of an Artist at a Remote Alaskan Cannery a.co/d/gWsgfam

When I wrote my memoir (see profile photo) I looked everywhere for a first hand account of life in a remote, roadless Alaskan cannery and couldn't find one. It's been a thrill to be able to ghostwrite one!
You usually only find sea urchins, especially ones this big, way down on a minus tide. But this one got knocked loose from the bottom and the tide floated it to the surface. It's about the size of a coconut.

The bad news: The Covid picture book bubble has burst. It's harder to get author-only picture books agented. The good news: Author-illustrators are still in demand. It's hard to find illustrators so anyone who does both has a "lighter" path to publication. #WritingCommunity youtu.be/vv1CKCpRVQw?...

Excellent review (thanks for the heads up that Agatha Raisin fans will like it). Note to self: get this book.

Wow, found a cobalt blue piece of beach glass. That's a rare color to find. Made my day!

Time and tide wrecking someone's Alaskan adventure. Shipwrecks are a common sight here.

Have you ever smiled through a conversation while internally screaming? You could be masking autism, something many Autistic people do without even realizing it. On a NEW video from my YouTube channel I’ve got 10 signs to look out for.

Enjoy the videos and music that you love, upload original content and share it all with friends, family and the world on YouTube.

Locked house style mystery

IS IT YOU?

Five things Andrew knows are true;
1. He’s trapped on the ARC moon base.
2. Everyone is lying.
3. At least one of the eight strangers he’s trapped with is a killer.
4. People have started to die.
5. He might be next
