THIS JUST IN, APRIL, 2016.  Recently finished a first draft of my third novel, titled (for now) Auroch Unbound. I'm very excited about this project. The story, I hope, is engaging and unique; it's a kind of modern day reworking of the myth of Theseus and the Minotaur. Stay tuned. Now the work begins!

 

STOP THE PRESSES. Come one come all to a free event on May 23rd, at 16 Spring St., Drayton, Ontario. World renowned bassoonist Nadina Mackie Jackson is throwing a giant 'house swarming' party, with great food, music, poetry, art, and storytelling. Yours truly is throwing down some poetry on the theme of home. Be there or be an equilateral triangle!
