@antmccrossan love your commentary — and insights from @nicholasroche — but wondering why you give Caleb Ewan such a disproportionate amount of attention? Husband and I have started making jokes about it — so obvious.

@antmccrossan thanks for being responsive to feedback about adding historical notes. Really appreciate it. Excellent commentary.

[Laurie Carter @LaurieCarter_EC]

@JennyJonescx @antmccrossan Exactly my feedback. Enjoyed the commentary very much, but missed the history and local colour.

Emily Carr on horseback in the Cariboo where she stopped to visit friends on her return from England in 1904. Her sisters were not amused when she returned to Victoria and continued the practice of riding astride!

Missing my family more than ever this weekend, but the best of friends here remind me just how much I have to be grateful for this Thanksgiving. https://t.co/nRqzGI9qno

Feeling arty on a magnificent day in Vancouver yesterday. Tip of “The Drop” and corner of the Convention Centre’s dramatic roof.
Returning to a walk I took for Book Three of Emily Carr’s BC and location research for the next Taylor Kerrick Mystery.

Driving between Revelstoke and Golden yesterday for my next Emily Carr’s BC talk. Not often happy about being stopped for road construction, but this time, no complaint.

Loved this tree hanging on, reaching for the light on the beach at Mount Douglas Park very near where the Teahouse once stood and the cabin where Emily stayed during her last sketching trip, in 1942.

Had fun experimenting with the pano setting on my iPhone in the tiny attic of Emily Carr’s House of All Sorts to capture one of her famous eagles and its row of little red frogs. Not sure how or when yet, but I am sure this will feature in a future book.… https://t.co/Zu6Vto9khe

Payed my respects at Emily Carr’s grave in Ross Bay Cemetery. Walked down onto the beach and found another artist at work.

A little Emily Carr reading. What's your favourite book by or about Emily?

I have a hard time choosing. See the black book in the middle? That omnibus contains seven of her works. Can't go wrong with "Klee Wick" and I also love her journals, "Hundreds a… https://t.co/ahFSJB8s94
