The whole weekend was spectacular. Â Golden and warm.
Sunday we had dinner with Andrea Wayne Von Koningslow, author and illustrator of my favourite Bing and Chutney picture books. Â Bing is the pig and Chutney is the elephant.
Sunday was dinner with our gang, Robin, Kevin and Hunter,
Craig and Eireann and Adam, Jen and William. Â We dug out his future Halloween costume, formerly Hunter’s, and it didn’t take a lot of convincing to get him to model it.
Now we just need a Bing to trick or treat withÂ

It’s
a real pain to find my way around in my current world but of course for The Fly Catcher, my historical novel, I need to walk around behind the eyes of a 10-year-old boy in Hamilton in 1912.
Second time through the draft, I visited the Hamilton Library Archive and got a street director for 1912. I can tell exactly who lived where and what shops and businesses were located wherever my character Will walked. Now I will go through the manuscript and paint another layer of detail over it.

This was an airmiles birthday dinner. Makes it more
special when we don’t spend real money. The Keg in Niagara Falls is one restaurant, not in a tower, with a great view.
Look closely and you can see me taking the photo as well as my husband Bob gazing at me in rapture.
