Snow is General

It's snowing like mad here in Toronto, obliterating the sky, and the wind is vicious. It's lovely to see brick and stone buildings, though. And thanks to my agent, Denise Bukowski, I had a delightful dinner with Wayson Choy, Robert McGill, and Kathryn Kuitenbrouwer. Discussion of old and new lives, books, writing, teaching, and nicknames. Looking forward to more discussion for a CBC Radio interview tomorrow, and reading at Miriam Toews's event in the evening. I hope it keeps snowing.
