Book-Talk : Somewhere Beyond the Sea, by TJ Klune
I obtained a four-chapter preview from NetGalley, for Somewhere Beyond the Sea by TJ Klune. Four chapters in, and there is already so much to love about this sequel to The House in the Cerulean Sea. There are such intense stakes so very skillfully conveyed, and such relevant parallels to our current society. I look forward to the book’s expected publication in September 2024.

Monkey D. Luffy cosplay : ‘Wanted’ poster
From the One Piece manga, anime, and live-action franchise: I created a Wanted poster featuring my cosplay of Monkey D. Luffy, captain of the Straw Hat Pirates. To create the poster, I used a template in Canva (an online graphic-design tool). The foreground photo of me was taken at home and, with my pose, I attempted to duplicate that of Luffy in his own Wanted poster. I removed the background and I layered it over a photo that I took during a walk along the San Francisco waterfront.
