Corner Brook Reading

Never More There (Nightwood Editions, 2009)
I’ll be reading in Corner Brook tomorrow to promote my first poetry collection, Never More There. This will be my first visit to CB and I have to say I’m looking forward to it. I hear there’s an enthusiastic arts community there, which makes sense due to the presence of Grenfell College and the Faculty of Arts there.
The details are available on the college website, but incase you’d rather get them from the horse’s mouth (or in this case fingers), see below:

Books will be available should you feel inclined to take one home with you.
Winterset Has A Winner

This is a few days late, but you’ll still appreciate that Jessica Grant has won this year’s Winterset Award for her novel Come, Thou Tortoise. Here’s a link to the telegram article. Congrats to Grant, who I heard read at the SPARKS festival back in Janurary, where she surprised me with her light, yet exciting reading style.
The runners up both received $1,000: Michael Crummey for Galore and Lisa Moore for February.
Reading Tomorrow

Just a quick note to say I’m reading in Whiteway, Trinity Bay tomorrow. There is an afternoon-long arts event happening, with visual and literary artists taking part. Books will be available, should the desire to have one strike anyone attending the festivities. More to come in the next couple of days.
