MooseCamp 2008

Another nice Fri­day in Feb­ru­ary for Moose­Camp; some­how the Moose­Camp day man­aged to score nice weather two years in a row. This year’s Moose­Camp was big­ger than pre­vi­ous years, and I think we’re get­ting to the limit of how many people we can take without los­ing some­thing. We also seem to be get­ting a lot […]

Energy Deprivation and NorthernVoice

There’s some­thing about these grey gloomy days that saps my energy. I’m still here, just not blog­ging much. I do post occa­sion­ally to my craft­ing blog, that seems easier some­how than this “main” blog. I’ll have to think about what that says about my blog­ging right now. I’m hop­ing that going to the North­ern Voice […]

So today’s glor­i­ous sun­shine, even though accom­pan­ied by cold frosts in the morn­ing, was […]

Yearly Rethink

One of the reas­ons I like going to North­ern Voice is that it always gives me lots to think about, in terms of what to write about on my blog, what tech­nical tricks to try out, and how to write bet­ter. Other people choose their blo­giversary, or maybe New Year’s Day, but I find Northern […]

Vancouver Bits of News

I’m still fight­ing off a bad cold, so blog­ging has been light and will be over the next couple of days. Things have still been hap­pen­ing in the world though… or at least in the part of it I inhabit. Rain­city Stu­dios bought Bryght — the Bryght guys (Boris, Roland, Kris, Richard) have been major […]
