Visual design 101
Last week I had the privilege of dropping in on a friend’s comp sci class at U of T to talk about visual design, as well as give design feedback on the apps they were building.

I hadn’t planned on entering Spoonflower‘s 2015 tea towel calendar design contest, but I had a little downtime and was inspired to create something abstract.
Casserole Diplomacy and Other Stories
The good news is that Casserole Diplomacy and Other Stories: An On Spec Retrospective Anthology has launched, which includes my story “More Than Salt”. (Tyche Books also published the Canadian superhero anthology Masked Mosaic.)

Interview with Design Feast

Hello world!
I’m afraid this site hasn’t launched yet. Justin imported the template and all my posts last night but the images didn’t make it through, so if you have ended up here there is a lot of content missing still.
