Back in February we managed to sneak away to Banff

Back in February we managed to sneak away to Banff. Who knew a month later the world would completely change?
Lindsey has been an amazing partner and always encouraging my writing or any new direction I go.
She'll give me her real feedback without sugar coating it, which is exceptionally supportive and honest. That's what I love about her.
It was also her bday recently! 🙌

Another read this year, no particular order. Kurt Vonnegut. Cat’s Cradle.
An apocalyptic story during WWII about a secret weapon that changes the world. Kurt Vonnegut’s black humour shines well in this story. #spankTheCat #catTax #amReading

The second illustration from the upcoming novel, Mortal, featuring Krista the protagonist.

Krista stared at the pint glass, ignoring their comments. She didn’t care about what the freakish abominations were doing. She was transfixed on the strange amber colour of the liquid. Even in hell, people found a way to make liquor.

So... I’ve done a bit of reading over the pandemic. Between Fire, Pain, & Ruin and Mortal: Part IV of Mental Damnation, I haven’t shared a lot of them. Now I’ll start posting the books I’ve read this year in no particular order.
First up is Power Systems by Noam Chomsky. Quite a heavy read and lots to digest, as it is with Noam Chomsky.
