I had a lovely time reading at the latest W2 Real Vancouver Writers Series last night. I was honoured to be a guest of the first series, and doubly honoured to be invited back for the sequel. The first time I had the misfortune of following Kevin Chong onstage. Kevin’s a great guy and a great reader — and an impossible act to follow. So this time series organizer Sean Cranbury was kind enough to let me read first — which always gives me a bad case of the nerves. So I was a little rambly, but the audience was forgiving, and we all had a good time in the end. My reading starts around the eight minute mark. I’m not actually tweeting at the beginning of it — I was trying to record the reading on audio but my Cinch app logged me out. Ah well.
