Great news!

Hidden Brook Press publisher/editor Richard “Tai” Grove is home from his annual Canada Cuba Literary Alliance trip to Cuba. As we speak, he is working on production for the fundraiser anthology, They Have To Take You In.

Gord Langill of the CMHA has promised us an introduction–with his background in mental health as well as literature I think we can look forward to something special.

I’m excited!

We’ll do an event in Peterborough, probably at The Barbeside, as well as possible launches in Toronto at Zoinks and at Cat Sass Norwood, if it’s still extant by the time we go to press.

Not sure of the dates yet as they depend entirely on Tai’s schedule–so please don’t ask me!

Happy spring! I think we can believe it now. Except there’s snow in Norwood. New snow…falling on the lake our little Ouse River has lately become…
