Did a radio interview this morning about my recently published young adult novel. The questions from the interviewer were not as substantive or lengthy as I had hoped.
If anyone is interested in either of my novels and would like to visit on a podcast, let me know. We will have a good time.

1/2: In light of our Government encouraging the Coast Guard to display nooses & swastikas, I'll share this story:

I kept it in the side table by the bed.

Attended the 140th commemoration of the killing of Louis Riel by the Canadian government, and not only was Wab Kinew there, addressing the group in *three* languages, but Prime Minister Mark Carney showed up & spoke in a tremendously symbolic gesture of reconciliation.

In the year 613 CE, Brunhilda of Austrasia, after a life of scandal & murder, was paraded, naked, atop a camel through the streets of Renève. She was tortured for three days, then her limbs were tied to several horses who tore her to pieces.
The parts were burned & scattered to the wind.
