I’ll be one of the presenters at the Feb. 21 Pecha Kucha evening at the Sunshine Coast Arts Centre in Sechelt. Screening 20 images from my 800-kilometre walk, I’ll discuss the memorials en route and how the pathway invites contemplation regarding death and eternal life.

The event begins at 8 p.m.; doors open at 7:30. This attraction fills up fast, so get there early to ensure a seat. The Arts Centre is at 5714 Medusa at Trail Avenue.

Note: In the spring, I will likely be repeating my workshop Twelve Gifts of the Camino: a SoulCollage® Journey on the Sunshine Coast, and offering it for the first time in Vancouver. Watch for details.

Some have called author Alice Munro a “feminist icon.” The devastating revelations about how she stuck by her second husband who sexually abused her daughter Andrea certainly show otherwise. Again, this does not surprise me. I consider myself a feminist and yet even so-called ones, presumably evolved beyond misogynistic values and role rigidity, can reflect…
