But Ralf, I don’t know how to make a character.
Ah but you do, because you know a lot of characters. We see them everyday, we interact with them and we know them very well. For you see the inspiration is all around you in the people that you know and even in yourself.

Contested. Top Story - June 2025.
And here I go again... June is here, and with it my yearly entry into the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC)'s Poetry Contest. They also have ones for Non-Fiction and Short Stories, but I think most wistfully over the one devoted to poetry. First, the deadlines are always the same, this one coming just as summer is about to begin (one of the coldest days in Montréal, but still). Second, I feel like I do my best work at the end of the semester with the pressure of term work and grading taken away and placed on someone else's back.

The Book of Questions. Top Story - June 2025.
Gregory Stock’s The Book of Questions prompts — If you could change anything about the way you were raised, what would it be? In what ways will you treat (or have you treated) your children differently from the way you were treated? If you’ve already raised children and could do it again, knowing what you know now, what would you do differently?

Difficult Questions To Answer?
Gregory Stock, Ph.D. The Book of Questions prompts - If your friends and acquaintances were willing to bluntly and honestly tell you what they really thought of you, would you want them to? Do you think your friends would agree with one another about the kind of person you are? How much energy do you spend doing things to favorably impress other people? If you were completely unconcerned about what others would think, what sorts of things might you do? How do you feel when people like you because they think you are someone you are not?
