Counting down to FilKONtario...

Urban Tapestry keychain figures

Above: Urban Tapestry keychain figures, created by Michelle Bottorff and given to Allison, Jodi and me by Kathleen Sloan, who bought them in an Interfilk auction.

Less than two weeks until FilKONtario (April 3 - 5, 2009)! As I've mentioned before, the members of Urban Tapestry have been invited to be the Filk Waifs (Toastmasters) this year. Heather Dale is the Guest of Honour, sf author Robert Sawyer is the Special Guest, and Gerry & Sandy Tyra are the Interfilk Guests.

Urban Tapestry practice

Allison, Jodi and I have co-written a song based on Flashforward, a book by Robert Sawyer, and we'll be debuting it in our concert. We're also participating in a Children's Concert as well as giving a workshop on how to build your confidence in filk.

My flute music

I am absymally behind in e-mail right now. Because of various trips (all fun, of course) and a pulled jaw muscle (now recovering, happily), I'm feeling a bit overwhelmed. I'll be posting more trip reports and photos when I have a chance.
