“Joe?”
I grunted.
“What are you going to do?”
I turned my head slightly and looked her in the eye.
“Well for starters, I’m gonna have to find a new job.”

As a proud, full time resident of the City of Winnipeg it seemed only appropriate to begin my literary journey in my hometown and display pieces of it prominently as set pieces in this novel. The axiom “write what you know” has been essential for me in this process and I am hopeful that this tale becomes a fun read for other citizens of Winnipeg, whether current, former or future.
