It’s often a pain to get a book published when it’s by a first-time author. With nepotism, elitism and favouritism ruling rampant in the publishing houses, new authors are often at a loss after being casually dismissed and shunted out on their faces by snooty publishers. Considering the bleak state of affairs, more and more amateur authors are seeking the service of eBook publishers online.

A couple of weekends ago, I posted this picture on Facebook with the caption “Kaitlin gets her 14 foot canoe”. I thought that post warranted a bit of an explanation so this is that post.
 This story starts in the late summer in 1986. Even though Loreen was 8 months pregnant, we decided to take a family trip with my Mom and Dad and Loreen’s mom Jackie. We visited and…

This year, I was one of around 30 participants (aged 19-29) accepted into the Theatre Entrepreneur's Networking and Training (TENT) Program as part of the Toronto Fringe Festival. My acceptance arrived at a time when I really needed it - after a long chain of auditions that really didn't bode so well for me. This program would give me something to be proud of! I would learn and network and become a PRO! And while I simultaneously walked away from the week very proud of…

The first-ever national grandparenting conference entitled "Legacy Grandaprenting Summit" will be coming to Frisco this fall.
Now, I am not a grandparent ... yet, but, with four boys (the oldest starts university this fall), I am certain that before long, I will get to bounce a little angel on my knees.
So, for those of us that already have that bundle of joy to play with (and hand over to mommy when diapers need changing), this is a fantastic opportunity to share, learn and…

Foreign currency trading is probably one of the most sure-fire methods to generate income nowadays. The system of Futures trading within the share market has been a pioneer in the class of earning swift currency by predicting trends and movements. And today it has the forex or currency exchange market for company.

Late last year, after completing, launching and promoting Mileage 51’s “Stone Unturned” CD, I thought about setting new musical goals for 2016. The first was completing my next CD project with Monks on the Moon “When Worlds Collide” which has just wrapped recording and is in post (editing/mixing..more on that in a future post). The other goal was satisfying a long-time desire to do serious live gigs in good venues.
For the purposes of this blog I want to focus on the latter. First I…

Music plays an important role in bringing up fond memories of the past. It’s a way to milestone our lives…at least I have always believed that to be the case. Just for fun I thought it would be interesting to create a short list of favourite 70s tunes and link them to memories from my younger days.

The past year has been a most excellent one and I learned a lot through my personal experiences, and through the not so personal experiences that were happening around all of us in 2015. I thought I would take a moment to reflect on these to start of the new year. Here is what I hope to keep in mind throughout the next year:

Ontario, Oregon, is a small town with fewer than 12,000 people. Yet it draws streams of visitors from neighboring Idaho and beyond. The reason is no secret. In Ontario, Oregon, dispensaries have become a curious border attraction with an economic engine and a cultural flashpoint. But what exactly should an out-of-state buyer expect? Far less glamour than a Netflix documentary might suggest, and far more rules than the average…
