Good analysis, one little note, this has happened previously with Trudeau Sr. and John Turner back in 1984.

I was interviewed by the local radio about Judo. This is a great write up on my sport, and club!

Flash Fiction #15 A story of a cartoon bat

My most recent story. It is early and short because I am still a bit under the weather coming back from holidays, and this weekend I'm swamped volunteering at a Canadian National-A tournament.

I used to follow it, but now I'm more focused on stats from reports with ProWritingAid. They have reports on various styles and guides on each level of line editing improvements you can make on the work. It feels like going from car speeds to airplane speeds. It has improved my writing immensely.

Hey, #writingcommunity, do you ever run the readability stats on your work? I always find it interesting, especially the way it can vary depending on genre. Here's the stats for the last story I sold, a flash fiction horror piece. Obvs, my prose tends to be pretty straightforward. lol

An Absurd Office What is real to surreal.

This is an older story that transitions through different phases. It was a fun one to write, so I thought I would share it with you. Try to guess the transitions.
