Up a Tree on Lake Ruhondo - Treehouse Adventures

Hi guys. It's been a while - sorry!

Here's a little excursion I went on recently with my friends. We stayed in a treehouse on Lake Ruhondo and swung back past the Ellen Degeneres & Dian Fossey Fund gorilla museum in Kinigi. Enjoy!

Fantasy Library #Authortube Tag

I was tagged in on a set of questions about favourite places to read, fantasy library design, and book conversations by my friend and fellow author Margaret Pinard. If you have a YouTube channel, feel free to join in. If you don't have a channel, you can always drop your answers in the video comments.

Kwibuka 30

Absolutely astonishing to think that it was Kwibuka 13 when I first arrived in Rwanda, and now it is Kwibuka 30!

And if you're interested, I've shared a bit about my experience volunteering at Kigali Memorial in 2008, and reflections on how Rwanda has changed over the years.

Toki Pona

The smallest language in the world... and utterly fascinating. Reminds me a bit of Talc Alf in the way one sign or symbol can represent so many things. Official Toki Pona site.
