I didn't intend to skip a whopping
six weeks between blog entries but life is unpredictable.
Between readying the
Yesterday sequel for publication
and other things that got in the way of blogging, well,
here we are in September. There were some tough things about
this summer that I can't really talk about because they're
not mine to tell, but there were also fun nights out at
the wind orchestra in an Oakville park, gelato-based outings
and two trips to the
CNE.
The first time Paddy and I climbed on a bunch of amusement
rides and got ourselves pretty dizzy, but I'm telling you,
you couldn't
pay me to ride the Mach 3. That thing
looks INSANE. If you're wondering what I'm talking, about
here's a clip of the same ride taken in Winnipeg:
I'm also doing a bit of work at my old office
for the next while, filling in for folks on vacation, and
now that the
Toronto
Film Festival's just days away I'll likely be disappearing
from the Internet again for a bit. But before I disappear
into movieland and my office cubicle, I wanted to announce
the upcoming blog tour for
Tomorrow
which Shane (thanks, Shane!) at
Itching
for Books has been doing an awesome job of putting together.

Meanwhile I'm holding a Yesterday + Tomorrow
giveaway at Goodreads to celebrate the paperback release
of Yesterday on September 10th and Tomorrow's
October 10th release. Residents of Canada, the United
States, the United Kingdom, Ireland, and Australia can enter
to win signed copies of both books.
I hope your own summer has been more of the fun parts and less of the tough ones! Personally, I'm also hoping for a September that feels more like summer than fall. I'm not ready to give up long evening walks by the lake with gelato in hand just yet.
