I haven’t been very active here for a few months. I don’t have a good excuse. But I have been busy on the book author front. A bunch of us have formed a writers group, with the help of Jessica Trudel and the Silverleaf Writers Guild — the ones who put on this summer’s Northern Ontario Book Fair in the Sault. I also took part in Author Palooza at the public library. About 20 writers in a vast variety of genres offered our wares at tables scattered through the library and gave short presentations throughout the day.
I’m the one without a colourful hat Then a few days ago I was a guest of the Red Chapeaux Sequel Book Club, venting on a writer’s travails to a bunch of avid, well-informed readers. By the way, I also do Bar Mitzvahs.
Tom Mills’s award-winning Humour Me columns add comic relief to a number of newspapers. He has been called “clever, wry, breezy, newsy, charming, self-deprecating . . . one of the funniest writers in this country.” This is the home of his blog and the path to his new book, Sex is a Four-Letter Word and Other Misconceptions . See “How to Buy the Book” (scroll to the bottom) .
