Yesterday was the day the rain beat me. I can’t motivate myself. I’m both wanting to burrow and feeling stir crazy. I just walked the dog, and changed all my clothes in order to do so. I put on quick-dry pants, swapped my sweater for a fleece, wore Gore-Tex hiking boots, a toque, and a raincoat. Then it stopped raining halfway through the walk.
No forecast brings hope. It was sunny this morning; when I got out of the shower it was dark and pouring. In ten days, all work will move to Whistler; at least the snowy ground will provide some brightness.
I'm an astigmatic expat writer, editor, speaker, author of crochet books, blogger, crafter and founder of the Mighty Ugly project.
I love talking people into indulging their creativity and I sometimes help authors and crafters promote their work online and have fun while they do it. I write here about creative business, crafts, books, pop culture and generally about ideas that force their way out of my brain. Wanna talk about stuff? Don't hold back.
