Ep. 131, One Foot in Front of the Other

In memoir, Key to Paradise, Mourad gets a job as a server while he finishes school. He buys an apartment without seeing the outside of it, then gets a new job helping refugees who are mystified by things we Canadians take for granted, like toilets. In Paws for Justice, Anthony introduces the narrator of his novel, a cat with strong opinions about herself and the family she lives with. In the 2nd installment of Tethered World, we learn that Zephr’s main caregiver, her grandmother doesn’t touch Zephr because the girl is too sensitive for that much stimulation. Instead, they communicate telepathically, sending images back and forth. NOTE: I workshopped a piece destined for publication in a book that is not my own last Monday, so it's not appearing in the podcast.
