Kaimana's decision to move here
Kaimana found Powell River through the Festival of Writers mentioned above. She immediately fell in love with the town and decided the pack should come here next.
The Pack
The Pack consists of many members, scattered across age, gender, and geographic borders. Here, in order of Pack Rank, are some core members.
Kaimana: alpha bitch
Pup (below) and Dam took a trip to Guatemala in 2005--much writing was done, especially on La Chiripa, which is set in Guatemala. Kaimana always looks best when she has a pen in her paw.
Jana: jr. alpha bitch
Jana, pen-name ev locke, is Kaimana Wolff's only pup. She is the webwolf for this site, a writer, a filmmaker and owner of the film company Cinema Fortuna, based here in PR and run under DeFy Gravity Productions, poet, comedienne (though not professionally), geek, gamer, freak, lover, and demi-doggess.
Her interests include but are not limited to: HTML coding and webwolfing ("It's better than sleep," she says); chocolate; environmental and all beings' rights activism; partying to good tunes with better friends; intelligent, well-made films with a message (the making and watching of); discovering new worlds and writing novels about them; graveyard-hopping; midnight picnics on grassy knolls (junkfood ONLY); video games (sans first-person shooter--those are generally stupid); learning; and talking about herself.
Mr. Major Caelum: beta boy
This is Mr. Major Caelum, the latest addition to the Pack. He joined the Pack a year after our dear sweetheart Blue passed from us. Major is wolf-shepherd, and the town sweetheart. He has a girlfriend on every street, and is always willing to make new friends.
