Introduction 

A former literature teacher, I am inspired by great works and great ideas. I enjoy being physically active, cutting through alleyways, listening to vinyl, taking photographs, and contemplating life. I am the creator of the blog: Zen for a Crazy World


My first book, Ken Foster's Vancouver: Life, Art and Alleyways (Granville Island Publishing) is available at Indigo, Chapters, Coles, Book WarehouseAmazon.ca, and various independent book sellers.
