GIMME BAR

There is a new visual booksaving service out there called Gimme Bar. It was created by Fictive Kin and looks to me like the geek guy version of Pinterest (which I've noticed appears to be populated 99% by women!) The demo video is adorable. (I think those Fictive Kin guys have a great sense of humour) It's official: There is too much going on on the web. :-(

This was how i felt this morning

Do I have to get out of bed?

wow. I wish I drew this but it was done by the wonderous UK based Pia Bramley.
I just discovered her through Pinterest. Am impressed by the vulnerability + fearlessness in her images.

And the Winner is...

Sarah Ward! Congratulations Sarah.
Thanks to everyone who entered the giveaway for my Empty Belly print at The marion house book. It was really great to hear from so many of you + I was touched by all your comments. Thanks also to Emma Reddington for hosting the giveaway.

Here is the transcript of Stephen Lewis' eulogy at Jack's funeral.
Rev. Brent Hawkes's eulogy was also wonderful.
