Exit This Side

This small chapbook started as a funny thought about how ridiculous I must look as I ran to catch the SeaBus and blossomed into a series of stories and impressions borne from my habit of shamelessly people-watching fellow passengers. Initially planned as a Christmas gift to family it grew from a modest vision of b&w 8.5″ x 11″ printouts to a beautifully designed small booklet that so surpassed my initial intent that it remains a bewildering and inspiring reminder of what can happen when you share your dreams out loud.

The inspiration story, Running the Gauntlet produced my very first byline when featured in the Globe and Mail First Person Section. The book was chosen to be part of the North Shore Authors Collection of 2019/2020 which meant that for a brief moment of time you were able to take MY BOOK out of the library. A thrill I’ll be chasing for all my years to come.
