The day has finally arrived... "So Many Shepherds," a collection of poetry by Ian McPhail and myself, is finally ready for public consumption! It has been a long time in the making, but I hope you will agree that the wait was worth it.

The book includes only a few of my older poems-- most are (relatively) new and unpublished poems. Some are deliciously abstract, while others attempt to convey a message in the traditional "look at me, I have meaning" vein of popular literature. I hope you enjoy the mix.

Ian McPhail's poems are nothing to be laughed at, either. I won't even mind if you get the book simply for his poems--and I don't say that because I profit from his success too. He is exceptionally gifted, and a tremendously interesting and compassionate man to boot.

So, where can you buy this book, you may (or may not) be wondering? It is for sale in the Adopt A Beard.com Store, first of all. In Saskatoon, fine book stores such McNally Robinson and the University of Saskatchewan bookstore are carrying it. In Camrose (Ian's domain), the book can be found at the Augustana bookstore, with several more listings to come in the near future.
