Of course I came back from the Okanagan with a pile of books.
From railing to right:
Unfurled: Collected Poetry from Northern BC Women edited by Debbie Keahey.
Winging Home: A Palette of Birds by Harold Rhenisch.
Shelter by Frances Greenslade.
Rhapsodomancy by Kevin McPherson Eckhoff.
Easy Peasy by Kevin McPherson Eckhoff.
Notes on Leaving by Laisha Rosnau.
Lousy Explorers by Laisha Rosnau.
Badlands by Robert Kroetsch.
While I was writing, H was photographing bugs found on the grounds of the Mackie Lake House. He launched a blog called Bugs of Mackie at the closing reception. I imagine some bugs and toads and quail and owls and who knows what else will find a way into my work. We'll see what happens in the coming months. I look forward to returning to the Okanagan next fall to launch the book.
