Alberta Arts Days in Sundre

The Writer’s Guild of Alberta received some last minute money for Alberta Arts Days and asked if I could drive up to Sundre for a library reading. There’s a school next door, and they’ll invite a couple of classes. I’m looking forward to it – I haven’t been to Sundre for years. And I love talking with kids. Friday September 18, at 10:00, at the Sundre Municipal Library.

Silver Birch Express

I’m off to Toronto on Monday for the Forest of Reading Festival. Feather Brain has been nominated for the Silver Birch Express, so I get to take part in the awards ceremony, sign books, give a workshop on “What If? – Where Ideas Come From”, and drive up to Uxbridge with some Toronto writers for a school event.

I’ll report back on the all the excitement when I get home.
