Always stuffing some food in my mouth …

I wanted to share another chunk of my alt-universe urban fantasy WIP with you today (19,357 words and going strong), but I’m feeling just a teensy bit overwhelmed between writing new words and getting Endings and Empathy (Amplifier 6) off to the proofreader. Let alone all the regular admin, etc.

Oh! And Julie (producer) and Erin (narrator) just dropped the audiobooks for Dowser 1, 2, and 3 in my inbox! So, while those are going to take some serious time to ‘proofread’ (in the evenings), anyone who participated in the Kickstarter will be pleased to know they are almost ready!

Anyway, a friend of mine, Thomas, send me this old photo yesterday (like old, old) of Michael, me, and my darling friend Janine attending a salmon BBQ before taking in a play at Bard on the Beach (aka Vancouver’s Shakespeare in the Park).

First, ugh, we all look so insanely young. And second, yes, I’m eating. I’m always eating whenever someone randomly turns a camera on me. I suppose you’re all not that remotely surprised, but seriously?

I could probably dig through my old photo albums and share a photo exactly like this one once a week and not run out for the rest of the year. My Dad especially specialized in these ‘perfect’ captures (like seriously, he deliberately stalked me during family gatherings to get shots of me eating)(a weird pastime)(that I won’t take the time to read any meaning into).

Okay! Back to my final pass on Amplifier 6!

  1. My father wasn’t the best photographer. His nickname was The Guillotine as he’d ‘decapitated’ every member of the family ☺️

  2. Lmao sounds like my father, he is the king of taking unflattering pictures. His excuse is that it needs to look natural πŸ€¦πŸΎβ€β™€οΈ but heaven forbid that anyone takes him a picture when he isn’t ready.

  3. Michael is looking at you like he loves watching you enjoy yourself!! Love it!πŸ’œπŸ’œ
