Hey folks! This one’s for the locals (or the folks willing to travel). Two great events coming up. This weekend, we have the Author’s Tent at Supercrawl (Sept 13 – 15). Noelle Allen joins us to flesh out some of the details. Then we have Bailey Duff from the Telling Tales Festival, talking about their exciting event, focusing on lit for kids (Sept 21 & 22). Listen in! 😀
Supercrawl
E355 with MARTA BALCEWICZ
Hey all! Wild weekend coming up at Supercrawl, the weekend music & art fest in Hamilton Sept 8 – 10. I’ll be spending most of my time at the Author Tent. Come by and say hi!
Friday 7:00 pm – Meet the Authors, buy a book, hang around.
Saturday 7:30 pm – Late Night Reads! I’ll be moderating a conversation with Andrew F. Sullivan, Liz Worth and Anuja Varghese.
Sunday 1:30 pm – Afternoon Mysteries! I’ll be moderating a chat with Scott Thornley and Melodie Campbell.
On to GET LIT! Today’s guest is Marta Balcewicz, and we’ll be discussing her novel Big Shadow. Listen in!
E95 with DANE SWAN
Hey folks! Hamilton’s abuzz this week, with the CCMA‘s wrapped and Supercrawl about to launch. The city will be full of art and music. This year, I’ll be hitting up some shows as always (Weaves and Cadence Weapon and my friend Terra Lightfoot and who knows who else). I’ll also be at the Hamilton Arts Council Literary Advisory Committee tent. Rolls of the tongue, doesn’t it? Need to short then. HACLAC? Hack-lack? Dunno. Anyway, find us on James St. N. We’ll have readings and guests and we’ll be selling books too!
I was going to have a pile of my own books to sell, but I’ve been bought out by the Alumni Department at Mac. That’s because – cool news – Captain of Kinnoull Hill is going to be in the Alumni Book Club! I’ll get more details for you as I get them.
In the meantime, let’s lean into this – our guest on Get Lit this week is author Dane Swan. He was a cool guy to talk to and his story collection, He Doesn’t Hurt People Anymore is excellent. Pick it up, and in the meantime, enjoy this interview!
