I was recently asked to judge the creative nonfiction category for The Malahat Review's 2012 Open Season Awards. If you want more information check out The Malahat Review on Facebook, add Open Season and you should be able to find it.

Especially if you enjoyed reading it.
An interview I did with Shelagh Rogers for The Next Chapter is now available online. You can download the podcast on itunes or listen online here.
CBC will also be re-broadcasting it on Saturday October 8th at 4pm.
