Welcome to my website & blogsite!  
I'm now commencing my second book of memoirs dealing with my life and work with Louanne in Gambia, Sierra Leone, Ghana, Malawi and Uganda and looking for input (including anecdotes) from friends and colleagues in Africa, Canada and elsewhere. 

Period to be covered: 30 years (1981-2011). Haven't settled on a title yet. Any suggestions?

I have moved about 15 pages of website material relating to African Chronicles to a new site: www.africanchronicles.net.

Hoping also to engage readers in a give-and-take on current affairs in Canada and the world, international development  (especially in Africa), education, literature and whatever. Please respond to any of my blogs, new or old - or just send one of your own. If you wish to write to me by email, pleased do so at devanney@eastlink.ca.

News: The general public is invited to my slide presentation and discussion on African Chronicles and my work in Africa (including The Gambia) on Thursday, March 1st at 7:30 PM at Scott Manor House, 15 Fort Sackville Rd (off Shore Drive) in Bedford. The event is hosted by the Bedford Grandmothers Club, affiliated with the Stephen Lewis Foundation. Copies of African Chronicles will be available at the publisher's special discount price ($20).
