What joy and delight to behold the man himself; the man whose novels, fantastical yet firmly entrenched in reality, I read endlessly as a child and teenager, an author who, because of this talk, renewed my desire to continue exploring his work afresh. The self-effacing Gee appeared on Sunday evening at his first public even [ ... ] |

We arrived home from Europe penniless, relatively jobless, and homeless for a month. But spring was in the air, and we had a new project to plan, not to mention announce.

The day before our three year anniversary, Josca and I had been travelling in Europe for just over two months. We were in Visby, a beautiful medieval city on the island of Gotland, smack in the middle of Medeltidsveckan, the annual festival of all things Middle Ages.The sun was sinking, caramelising the stone of city walls. The iconic roses of the city were burnished a bright blood red. Warmed and contented by [ ... ] |
