E383 with TOM WILSON TEHOHAHAKE
Hey folks! Once again, I got to spend a little time with is his Hamilton home. I’ve known Tom since around 1990, and have seen him (and written about him) plenty since then. It’s been fascinating to watch his artistic endeavors expand and to follow his story (as laid out in his bestseller, Beautiful Scars).
We talk about all kinds of things today but ostensibly this interview is about Mohawk Warriors, Hunters and Chiefs: The Art of Tom Wilson. Tune in!
E353 with VIOLET BROWNE
This week on the show! My conversation with Violet Browne about her novel, This Is The House That Luke Built. Listen in if you can.
This fall, if all goes well, ours guests will include Lorna Crozier, Sean Michaels, Karma Brown, Waubgeshig Rice, Alicia Elliott and others. An exciting line-up!
Also: if you’re in Hamilton, make sure you drop by the author tent at Supercrawl, there’s a lot happening. Details to come.

E302 with ELAINE MCCLUSKEY + EVENTS
Hey all!
Just wanted to let you know a few things. RIVER, DIVERTED will be officially released Oct 15, but I suspect you can find it before that – especially if you pre-order from Palimpsest Press! Other fun things of note:
- I’ll be interviewing author Michael Barclay at the SUPERCRAWL festival in Hamilton, ON. 5 pm Sat. Sept 10. We’ll talk once again about his great book, Hearts on Fire
- I’ll be on a panel with Terri Favro and Sifton Tracey Anipare (who I hope to have on the show soon!). Same festival, next day – Sun Sept 11 at 1 pm. Both events at the lit tent!
- I’ll be hosting an online conversation courtesy of the McMaster University Alumni Association. That’s Thurs Oct 20, and it features Terri Favro and Farzana Doctor. Links to come.
- Finally, the local launch for RIVER, DIVERTED will be at MILLS HARDWARE (95 King St. E, Hamilton) on Wed Oct 12!
Yeah, so lots happening 😀
