hello.
well, i just got back from my cousin's wedding in honolulu. it was lovely. i bought a tibetan singing bowl (it's my tone...) and today i'm going to the Genie reception for the Western Canadian nominees at the Met. Then, I'm off to VIVO for a Western Canada book launch for this anthology - Reel Asian: Asian Canada on Screen. I have an interview, sort of, in it, with Mina Shum. I don't really mention anything about my mother. That's just a weird editing gaffe. You'll see what i mean if you buy the book. It's available through Coach House Press. Also, I'm about to go on my first Cruise. Which has nothing to do with anything i am working on. After that, it's off to the Sylvia Hotel, which i have been frequenting for over 25 years... to talk about my graphic novel, the magical life of long tack sam. they are going to show my film, too. Later, in april, i'm off to kelowna with the french guy for their film festival. i'm going to give a workshop or panel or something or other there. when i get a little more used to this blog thing, i'll probably write these things down in shorter, more regular spurts. i promise. thanks for reading. next installment i'll wax on about how i think that suicide bombers in the middle east are not so different from the shooters in highschools in north america. wait for it!
