Literary Arts Award and Ladybird Animal Sanctuary Concert

Congratulations - You are a finalist! Who, me? Indeed. For what?! 2012 Literary Arts Award. No $hit? No $hit. Earlier this year, B asked: "Why don't you write any more? Maybe you should try writing again." I was so inspired, I wrote a story for the Toronto Star Short Story Contest, and lost. Big time. BUT, I also incorporated that story into an application for a 2012 Literary Arts Award, and was judged a finalist by a jury of my peers, and the Oakville Arts Council. More details to come... Shot this video in Montego Bay. The wind sings along for the first verse/chorus, but lets me take over after that. The application asked for three samples. I gave: 1. "George" the Monster - Based on a true story 2. The Compassion Experiment Cook Book - (More news to follow soon...) 3. The Car - Last fiction piece I wrote It's exciting just to be nominated, but winning would be very, very sweet. We'll be heading of to Las Vega
