Found this tactile thermoform page in a box. I believe it’s a type of sea snail.

So I got out of bed yesterday morning after a full 4 hours of sleep, pumped myself full of coffee by 8:57 am, and the phone never rang for the 9am interview with W Radio – Bogota, Colombia.  Maybe they meant next Saturday?

Supposedly the media reports surrounding my book had made it to the front lines in Afghanistan – to the Canadian troops.
