Devon was Like This. Let's do Shakespeare in reverse- for those who feel so inclined, take the weather where you are now (or some memorable weather) and compare it to a family member (includes pets, includes ancestors). Rhyming optional - well, it's all optional really.
The illustration version is here. Recently got a call from an editor about a story I had written during which she used a really indirect approach to tell me revisions would need to be made. Since I could see the criticism like a freight train coming from a long way off, I felt increasingly impatient. Eventually I got off the phone with a polite excuse, took a couple of days, and wrote down the specific information I needed from her, and we had some productive communication. When is it good to walk away to take a little breathing time and when is it, you know, kind of snotty?
A sort of human bee carrying on the work of pollination. I drew and photographed this a couple of days before Vancouver blogger Nao posted about her BeeCause Pollination Project, working to foster honeybees in neighborhood gardens. Bee populations have recently suffered mysterious losses in population and are in need of help in surviving.
