We attended a couple of readings this week and are bringing you the highlights!

The first reading we attended was hosted by Dr. Louis Cabri. Featured writers were:
Omar Kanawati, reading from a story set at sea…
Laryssa Brooks, performing her unsettling prose.
Jay Rankin, reading his Basho-inspired poetry.
Amilcar Nogueira, sharing some delightful wordplay.
Also featured at the reading was the university’s Writer-in-Residence, Madeline Sonik, and our very own Brittni Carey.
April 1st, the undergraduate were featured at the annual Creative Writing Gala, also held at the Green Bean Cafe (if you haven’t been, it’s quite wonderful!). Hardcover co-hosted the event with Dr. Susan Holbrook, Dr. Nicole Markotic, Dr. Louis Cabri, and Dr. Suzanne Matheson. The cafe was absolutely packed full of people listening to almost 50 students speak their prose and poetry; each reader had only two minutes to read, so it went quickly! Students also sold chapbooks of their amazing work. It was wonderful to be a part of this event!
You can listen to the full Gala recording here. Unfortunately, the sound quality isn’t as good as we would like to be, but the readers are amazing, so that makes up for it 🙂


The song featured at the end of this episode is by the super talented and super fun Richard Garvey. You can view his CBC page, or his Facebook page to hear more!
