Yay, Emily! |
Hi, Brian.
Understorey Magazine bought a
piece from me called "Mom-Friend" and it's in their current issue.
I've also sent out a ton of writing to other magazines so I'm hoping to get a
second piece (and third, and fourth) published soon.
Regards,
Emily Zarevich
And you can join me and Emily and lots of other great writers
for lunch on Sunday, June 10, in Toronto. See here (and join me again for lunch and to hear some great writing on June 24 in Burlington – see here).
Hi, Brian.
Just thought
I’d drop you a note to let you know that my short story "The Cattle,"
has been selected as the runner-up in the 2018 J.F. Powers Prize for Short
Fiction from Dappled Things.

Hi, Brian.
I read your blog every day, and daydream about attending your classes. Unfortunately
my living in Nova Scotia makes that quite difficult. Your blog and
writer testimonials inspired me to submit my short story "Scar
Tissue" to Feminine Collective and it has now been published.
Thank you for your informative site!
Best,
Cate Carlyle
I wanted to share my excitement with you!
I won – for both pieces I submitted to the Ontario
Writers Conference contest!

Hi,
I’m looking for beta readers for my novel The System. If you like people-focused
stories about the human spirit then this will be an interesting read for you.
It is a memoir about my time working in the Ontario shelter system with
marginalized women. My manuscript is only 153 pages, but I am hoping to find
readers who are willing to give it a thorough look. But, if you’re interested
in participating, but only have time to give general feedback then any help you
can offer is appreciated!
See Brian Henry’s schedule here, including writing workshops,
weekly writing classes, and weekend retreats in Algonquin Park, Bolton, Barrie,
Brampton, Burlington, Caledon, Collingwood, Cambridge, Georgetown, Guelph,
Hamilton, Kingston, Kitchener-Waterloo, London, Midland, Mississauga, Oakville,

Windsor, Woodstock, Halton, Muskoka, Peel, Simcoe, York Region, the GTA,
Ontario and beyond.
