Where is Jacqueline right now?
Mostly hanging around close to home in Port Alberni, juggling the three main things in my life: writing, gardening, adventuring (mainly running and cycling right now).
What's new?
My running buddy and I have been doing so many great, long and scenic trail runs around Port Alberni that we started a photo blog. Check it out: http://daveandjackierun.wordpress.com
I'm busy working on my first screenplay, as well as finishing up the writing on my next book, My Secret Sasquatch (and other possibilities). This is a very fun book for me - a collection of stories that slide around in that zone between fact and fiction, all set on the wild west coast of Vancouver Island. Click on the cover image to visit the book's website.
Following my visit this winter to Navarino Island (Chilean Patagonia), I'm excited to be working with my collaborator Cristina Zárraga, to release a North American English-language edition of Hai kur mamashu shis, the collection of traditional Yagán tales that I translated from Spanish to English. I'm looking at printing and distribution options now, and am aiming for a release in 2012. I'm also thinking about book tour venues - let me know if you have ideas!
I also have four previously published books.
