A labour day post from Denman Island…

As a novice author, I am continually surprised and pleased by the support I have found by others to share my work and the work of others. Jane Dougherty is a poet and novelist, a blogger and a mother who lives in Bordeaux, France (as opposed to any other place in the world called Bordeaux- a point I make because there appears to be a few dozen cities in the US of A alone called Paris.)

People like Jane Dougherty are both creative and generous and I much appreciate her recent post of a sample of my work. This link contains an excerpt from Chapter 8 of my novel, Like a Child to Home, as well as one of my Gentrified Soul articles, this one called   Part 39-Confessions of gentrified soul-A how-I-learned-to-work-then-leave-it-all-behind reminiscence.

On this Labour Day, 2014, my modest bit of work–life nostalgia seems appropriate to circulate.
