Whistler Independent Book Awards
The inaugural awards recognizing self-published Canadian authors were announced at the 15th Whistler Writers Festival. Separation Anxiety took first place in the non-fiction category!
Words in the Park – Sherwood Park
I enjoyed hanging out at Words in the (Sherwood) Park celebrating Alberta Culture Days.
The Word on the Street – Lethbridge
The non-profit The Word On The Street celebrates Canadian reading, writing, and champions literacy primarily through a free, annual outdoor festival.
McNally Robinson Books – Winnipeg
I love Winnipeg!
Not only does it have history, art, culture and great restaurants, it has the most wonderful independent bookstore that celebrates words and writers from across Canada!
Frances Morrison Library – Saskatoon
I was invited to the historic Frances Morrison Central Library for a reading and book signing on a lovely June evening. I spent the afternoon in their Local History Room digging up details for my new writing adventure.
