WHY SHOULD YOU READ

ANYTHING ON THIS SITE?

Look at the dog.

This site contains short, funny pieces about being single, parenting, working, growing up and growing old and plenty more relevant stuff. There is flash fiction, poetry, a graphic novel and more!

And you can listen to episodes of The World Poetry Cafe, broadcast every Thursday on CFRO FM, Vancouver, a show I help create! I am also now posting episodes of Access Radio, also broadcast on CFRO FM. Access Radio is a weekly show about disability advocacy and issues.

Look at Experimental Writing, if you please. The Winnipeg Weakly Herald is a graphic novel whose chapters are one issue each of a community newspaper. And you could start your day with the Any Year Daily Calendar, which has something for each day!

Enjoy and get back to me!

  • War Crimes

    War Crimes General Marlboro routinely, as ordered, left combat decisions for individual strikes to AI.  He worried he was committing war crimes, even as he ordered aerial attacks.  AI attacked a compound containing the enemy’s leaders but it also levelled a nearby school (assuming it also contained leaders.)  He ordered attacks on infrastructure.  AI attacked…
