“The Museum is open twenty-four hours, but not consecutively. Wednesdays through Fridays from noon to six and Saturdays from six to midnight. You may want to become a member. By the end of your visit, you may even become an exhibit.”
– “The Museum of Admirable Suffering” (out now in The Baffler magazine)

The Writer in Residence program at the North Vancouver Delbrook Recreation and Culture has been an excellent experience; extended to Dec 2024.  Facilitating workshops on flash fiction with co-pilot Dhana Musil has been a thrill–we know how to have fun and share the joy of small fiction writing.  We’ve created North Shore Story Slams ( the next will be this coming Oct 5th) and in house  story salons,  fostering a new level of community here on the North Shore.
