So, this side of the blog is kinda dead, lol
For those visiting this side of the Bionic Perry blog-o-sphere these days, this was my VERY old writing blog where I was pretending to be a writer with aspirations of making it as a writer one day.
A hideout for rants, tidbits, essays, shorts, micros, minis and all types of stories! And pictures too! And maybe some comics in the near future!

Last night my wife and I attended the 23rd Manitoba Book Awards where I got to hobnob and rub elbows with many wonderful Manitoba writers and publishers, enjoy some wine, and eat some nibblies, and of course take in the awards.
Well, since this blog is supposed to also be about my writing, I better mention this (or else Ariel will punch me).
I was at Aqua Books last night for one of their pre-Manitoba Book Awards evenings, where they invite the nominees of some of the awards to read.
Last night I attended the Winnipeg premiere of Cantus Borealis: Song of the Forest, performed by the Winnipeg Chamber Orchestra at Westminster United Church.
Ariel officially launched her book Hump tonight at McNally Robinson Booksellers, and it was everything it should be: surrounded by friends and family and colleagues and fellow writers and editors and lots of good will and love, and even a bunch of books being sold! Heck, even bookstore owner Kelly Hughes of Aqua Books managed to slip past McNally security and make it to the launch! ;-)
Yay for Ariel Gordon!
