When a beloved local news publication puts your author photo from twenty years ago on the front cover. Bless you. I still look this good, though, right? Right? :)

The cover story celebrates the @wordonthelake.bsky.social writers festival May 15-17.

As a new year's resolution, I promised myself I'd go back to doing silly, creative things just for the hell of it. Well, you can't get any sillier than this. Behold, writers' hands ... (Even sillier with the sound on.) #amwriting #writingcommunity #writersky #bcwriters #writerslife
