I think my fascination with Hipstermatica is dying.

I’ve been meaning to post links to things that are awesome. But I’ve been waaaay too busy eating chocolate.

My writing partner Ayma did this when she was 13, when she was still a wee little friendly Yukonite forest animal. Look how cute she is! I full on laughed out loud at the end.

I forgot how much I love the Deadly Snakes. This song is speaking to me these days.
(I get to see Andre and his lovely wife Kai this summer at an epic wedding!)

07 Let it All Go

I think I forgot to mention that I wrote this a few weeks ago. Someone told me it was on the cover of the Metro. I guess that’s exciting.

Check this out…

Special right?

Another thing that’s awesome that’s not really a link? Being complimented. I’ve had some really nice compliments lately. Some of my favourites?

One of my editors called me beguiling. (I had to look it up.)

Someone else (whose bones I totally want to jump) called me intriguing. (That fed the ego.)

And a sort of stranger called my writing “next level shit.”

My favourite compliment of my life: I was an usher in university and Rafi was performing at the venue where I worked. I had this hairband that had flowers on it so it looked like I was wearing a ring of daisies in my hair. I was wearing it the night of Rafi. This one little girl, who was probably six, just stared at me in awe. Her teacher later came up to me and told me the girl had asked her if I was a princess. I’ll never forget that.

Makes a girl feel special! Seriously, keep ‘em coming.

What’s the best compliment you’ve ever received?
