Saturday Snap – Supper With Friends (and Some Thoughts on the World We’re Living In)

It’s almost like it comes out of a factory with how every kid has such similar qualities. Sasha turns nine […]

Throwback Thursday – #tbt – random thoughts for a random age (2002 or 2003?)

When I worked for the Writers Guild of Alberta, I decided to be brave and do a poetry reading as part of the Calgary Stroll of Poets. Here’s one of my poems… headtale ยท Random Thoughts For A Random Age
