Life On A Road With Kage
Kage Baker, as I have often observed, was a born tourist. She was a happy spectator in the world, any and all of it, constantly seeking new things to witness. She loved to watch things, especially through the windows of … Continue reading

Doing Nothing Between Fire and Flood
Kage Baker harboured a guilty excitement about fire season in California. It’s not good when the hills catch and walls of fire sweep down the golden oat and oak covered hills; and she had the native Angeleno’s inborn fear of … Continue reading

Kage Baker had (usually) black eyes. They went oddly and dramatically with her paper-pale skin, freckles and red hair – but she had her father’s eyes, and he was mostly North Eastern Native American. Mrs. Baker occasionally sighed regretfully that … Continue reading
