Yeah, I know, it’s been a while…

Sorry for the looooooooong time between entries…it’s not because I don’t love you (okay, some of you I like but don’t love, and others I perhaps love too much) but things have just been cruising at a relatively normal pace so I haven’t had much to say until now.

Here’s a catchup post for those of you in the cheap seats:

  • I worked on a number of projects including FEAR THE WALKING DEAD, ONCE UPON A TIME, STAR TREK BEYOND and DC’s LEGENDS OF TOMORROW;
  • I did my usual summer fireworks shows (Canada Day, Celebration of Light) as well as other events like Motley Crüe and New Year’s Eve (the first NYE fireworks in Vancouver in ten years!);
  • I made my annual February pilgrimage to Lake Havasu City, AZ for Western Winter Blast and ended the trip with a few days in Las Vegas (I heartily recommend the Happy Half Hour at the High Roller; 30 minutes of open bar while getting an aerial view of the Strip).
  • I’m now in the process of prepping to teach a Special Effects Pyrotechnics course on March 17th and then, during the Easter long weekend, I will be attending Norwescon 39 and taking part of the Hellbender Filmmaking Workshop along with the usual suspects and a couple of new partners in crime.If you’re at the con please track me down and say hello and I’ll give you a special badge ribbon (limited quantity)!

    That’s all for now; I will try to write more often but don’t hold your breath (unless you’re into that sort of thing - but remember to auto-asphyxiate responsibly).
