Hi to all,
I can’t believe that it is October. This year has gone by so fast. I don’t know if it is because I am older or???
September was wonderful with lots of performances & meeting new people, continual work with and for the downtown eastside community with lots of marches and the current fight for equality with the Missing & Murdered Women’s Inquiry.
A triumph and celebration in regard to the Supreme Court decision to keep Insite open and the sadness at the recent loss of so many women
I thank the many who have provided support with this work.
I am moving into new territory giving some workshops with a requested one at UBC in songwriting for the Humanities101 course and the other at Carnegie called “Being Heard” made up of three sessions and which will be held in November…more on that in next newsletter.

Reflections as i move into my 66th year
As I look back on the last year, i am reminded how precious life is and that we all lose when someone or something positive is lost.
in peace & gratitude,
