  L’essentiel de mon travail, en tous cas dans les phases de maturation de projets, se passe dehors. Je veux dire en dehors de chez moi.

I’m planning a walk before the summer ends—not a very long walk, just a few days, but long enough that I need to do something to get ready, since a six weeks or more of sitting and writing has done less than nothing to help me prepare. So this morning I left the house carrying […]

South Coulee, Southern AlbertaIt's all about the grasses at this time of year. So many shapes and shadows and shades of green. I set out along deer trails, hoping to pick some Saskatoon berries.
