Gathering oral history, genealogical research, and the written history of Rupert’s Land and the Red River Settlement, Audrhea Lande gives us the true life story of William Hallett. He called himself a loyal half-breed of the Red River Settlement and, with good reason, sworn enemy of Louis Riel. Overlooked by history until now, this is the story of a remarkable Métis man, one Manitobans can proudly call their own.

I have long been fascinated 
by ravens.
The way their calls spread 
through the forest like a magic 
cloak. The hollow bamboo call, 
the dripping water call, the 
knock on wood, the gargle, the 
gurgle, the kraa, and the wow!

Among these sticks 
and bones, may you 
discover a shining 
treasure of your own.

About The Book:

One day while walking in the woods, Allison 
Douglas-Tourner came across a raven harvesting sticks for his nest, dropping them into a 
pile to use later, along with a few small bones. 
The experience became a poem. 
Gathered here is a collection of “sticks and 
bones” from moments in the poet’s life, each 
giving the imagination room to breathe—for 
that is the true magic of haiku

A promising young artist, dead—hanging in his Saskatoon loft…

Just another suicide? His parents don’t think so. They convince Noah Carey to investigate.

Haunted by the death of his sister, coping with the pressures of imminent fame, did Ronnie Robinson finally give in to his demons?

Carey’s investigation takes some unexpected turns, leading him into the shadowy world of high-end art and a desperate scheme.

Noah Carey is not your normal tough-guy private eye. A retired historian turned investigator, he rides a bike and hates guns. But as the details he uncovers begin to take shape, Carey must put his life on the line—and he won’t stop until he has the whole picture.

Theft. Crime. And a brush with death.

Welcome to Noah Carey’s life.

Hive Mind, acrylic on canvas, 20”x24”, 2019
We are instinct-driven beings, repressing parts of ourselves to fit our busy modern life roles. When dreaming, our minds are allowed to explore these instincts, in ways that are sometimes scary, exciting, pleasurable, or nightmarish. This painting is part of her "Dream-bodies" series, a collection of paintings that examine the connection between our unconscious selves and the natural world. "Hive Mind" is a glimpse of the artist's creative center, and the buzzing, squirming ideas within.
