Who: For more info contact: lorraine.murphy at gmail.com

The Shebeen Club is pleased to present The Moon Project with White Rock poet, author, songstress, and maverick Virginia Gillespie. The author of Taoist Inner Tube Rider will be launching her innovative new Moon Project, a year-long, cooperative artistic challenge in which she invites all artists to participate.

This will be a very free-wheeling, possibly musical event which will cross the barriers between artistic disciplines and encourage audience participation.

Bio: Taoist Inner Tube Rider began as a metaphor to describe the Author’s style of writing that has evolved into a book and CD. It is created to bring the words alive and to inspire people to engage with poetry.

Through word, sound and image revelations are presented as a lyrical journey through time and as a cyclical ride through nature.

The writing spans four decades. The geographies are desert, forest, waterways, and sky represented in wind, weather and sound waves.

A woman rides through them all – flowing through vistas and deep feelings to find meaning and purpose.

Here, my friends, is proof. Cover your eyes and turn away, rather than click on and be damned.

Here be dragons.

Here be Cthulhu Goatse: Continue reading

Good Ideas vs Bad Ideas

Good Idea: rollerblading down to the office to pay your dues to the Federation of BC Writers for which you are the new Lower Mainland rep. Gets your dues paid and your workout done at the same time, plus bonus tanning time you don’t have to feel guilty about because you were, hello? productive.

Bad Idea: having two honey lagers at White Spot before attempting to rollerblade home.

Nuff said.

Quiz: What Slanguage Do You Speak?

Well, it’s good to know that I speak moderately good Canadian. Not sure how useful all that Victorian slang knowledge is going to be, though; I don’t know any old people!
