On CBC Radio One with Hal Niedzviecki

I woke up this morning and noticed a lot of hits coming from Hermoine's Heart blog and went over to check it out. She had done a blog post about me being mentioned on the CBC radio one interview that Hal Niedzviecki did for his book, The Peep Diaries: How We are learning to Love watching Ourselves and our neighbors. I am mentioned in part 2 of that book and have since had a few interviews because of that interview. It's pretty cool to be mentioned on a radio station also. I hope that everyone has had a chance to pick up the Peep Diaries book! I read mine within a few days and couldn't put it down.

It was very surreal for me to be in the Chapters and seeing my name and interview in the book. I had no idea that an interview that I did for his blog would lead to a book and then the Globe and Mail and other places like the CBC now. I was offered the chance to do a documentary about the Peep Diaries but I declined because I didn't want to show my face.

I am kind of curious of what is next for Hal Niedzviecki. Will he be going on the Oprah show and talking about me? After all, she did mention his book in her summer favorites for reading and she recommended his book. I had no idea that the Peep Diaries would become so known and that I would become a bit famous!! :)

May the force be with you all!!

That's so cool, My slave, how one step in the right direction leads to another unexpected plus, and then another. How serendipitous!
