Usually I blog about issues related, however tangentially, to writing and keep my personal life out of it but, today, the two have combined.
"What is so special about today?" you might ask. Well, let me tell you. Today I got an ISBN number for my book, The Sandman. What I didn't know when I applied for the ISBN number is that every publication in Canada—I guess any publication that's assigned an ISBN number—has to be submitted to Archives Canada for inclusion in a vast archive to "collect and preserve the nation's published heritage."
I think it is incredibly cool that my book—which is a retelling of a story my father told to me—is considered part of Canada's heritage. I know, I know, it really isn't that big of a deal, but for some reason I'm thrilled by it.
So, there it is, that's my blog for the day. :)
