Thanks, Lindsey, for the chance to spill about my musical past, the launching pad for AFTER THE WALLPAPER MUSIC.

Spent a fun afternoon returning to my sports media roots and covering this event at my local @GuelphCurling for @curling News. Even managed to overcome my post-game scrum phobia thanks to generous curlers @BottcherCurling @RHoman89 @kirkmuyres 🥌 ♥️ #curling

AFTER THE WALLPAPER MUSIC.
So, what is “wallpaper music”?
It’s a pianist/guitarist/string quartet playing in the corner. It's the music you hear without noticing.
But what happens when you DO notice?

Spent many hours on the @CurlingCanada media bench (aka my kitchen table) covering 🇨🇦 teams around the world. Who needs streaming? The suspense between @worldcurling screen refreshes is awesome! @TeamGushue @TeamHoman

It's Ontario Public Library Week. @LibrarianshipCA #LibrariesForLife
I write books for kids. This one just published. It was on hold for weeks before it even released...
No wonder I (and my #kidlit colleagues) love libraries! ⤵️⤵️⤵️
