My sixth (?!?!) Best of the Net nomination!
Lately, I’ve been less focused on chasing the next publication. While it is certainly a wonderful feeling when new pieces get accepted and are then released into the world, there is a whole other underground process that no one but me ever sees.
Well, that’s a wrap! The final short poetry film for 2024 has arrived. A 10 hour drive home from Vancouver along a highway road in the mountains. Time was starting to drag until I began to take pictures of the headlights and taillights. This turned into a full-fledged filming session which made the last hour whip by.
My first nomination for Best Microfiction!

I think this might be the first time a city hall got its very own blog post. To be fair, there’s not one building to explore, but two. Like most things in Seoul, there is a blending of old and new and this municipal necessity is no exception.
Wherever we go, we try to make some time for bookstores, libraries, and other book-adjacent things. Sometimes they make it into the blog, and sometimes they don’t. Maybe it was the trip research we did or maybe we were just lucky, but we found there was no shortage of beautiful book places in Seoul to make a bibliophile happy.
There was a lot of food we wanted to try in beautiful Busan. So much so, in fact, that we kept getting distracted by other food options and completely missed the seafood! Not quite sure how that happened since Busan is renowned for having some of the freshest seafood, but before we knew it, it was time to move on. Oh well. I guess this just means we will have to go back!
