My book haul from Rainforest Retreat this year (yes, I know, it's been a month - I got distracted).

Tree squid approved. #rainforestwriters #treesquidadventures

The Rainforest retreats are coming up starting Feb 19. There've been the usual Jan. cancellations (sign-ups happen 12 months in advance), but this year I find myself with an empty wait list. If you or someone you know might be interested in a session, let me know. Info:

I would like to speak up today for the trans community.

You see, I know a bit of what it’s like to be politically scapegoated. When Japan attacked Pearl Harbor in 1941, suddenly anyone in America who had any amount of Japanese ancestry became suspect. Politicians preyed upon ignorance and fear. /1
