Words Alive Update

There has been lots of action on the Words Alive front. If you aren't checking that website (Words Alive) on a regular basis, you are missing out on a lot of information!

In addition to announcing the headlining authors (Robert J. Sawyer, Sandra Birdsell and Corey Redekop), the newly-posted schedule reveals the workshops, seminars and panel discussions that will be taking place on Nov. 10. Some of these include the launch of local author Nathan Town's latest book, a poetry-writing workshop with Laurie Block, details on the after-parties and much. much more.

If you are a writer looking to hone your craft, the Super Series may be what you are looking for. This all-day workshop will include a fiction-writing component led by Armin Wiebe (novelist and Red River College creative writing instructor) and a "blue pencil session" with author Anita Daher.

For more information on any of these activities, contact the Brandon Book Festival Association at wordsalivefestival@gmail.com or by calling (204) 728-2665

I hope to see you all there!
