With the weather we’ve been having, summer feels to have been around for awhile now.  But for me, July 1st is the real first day.

As of yesterday, my hockey poetry anthology project is a Go!  I’m very pleased about this.  Seems fitting, for Canada Day.  I’ll be collecting hockey photos from across the country–so if you have something, let me know!

This photo is one of my favourites…the kids out on the ice by the ferry terminal, winter 2007.  Love the row of boots in the foreground…and being West Coast, the shoes.  I’ll still be looking for poems of particular form and content.  Contact me, if you want to know more.  The anthology will be published with Gumboot Books, in Fall 2010!
