Kudos to Denisha and Evana, Jayne, Barbara, and Susan!

Hi, Brian.

I hope you’re well. I do miss your classes and am looking forward to the June retreat. I am coming!

Also, Evena and I will be reading our pieces from  Prairie Fire Magazine 50 over 50 issue May 1st. I’m attaching the poster and I hope you can put it on your blog and maybe even attend :)

Thanks for your help in all things writing,

Denisha Naidoo

The launch of Prairie Fire Magazine 50 over 50 issue will be Thursday, May 1; 6–8 p.m. at High Park Library, 288 Roncesvalles Avenue, Toronto (Map here). Come and hear Denisha, Evena, and other great writers featured in this issue read their stories aloud.

Hi, Brian.

I'm thrilled to let you know that my first person essay about homesickness, workshopped in our Wednesday Intensive Writing Class, is to be published in the Globe and Mail online on April 8th and in print on the 9th! Thanks to you and everyone in my small group for their support and feedback!

 Best wishes and see you in class

Hi, Brian.

I'm getting a lot of mileage out of this piece, “Why does spring also have to be dog poop-bag season?” Between the comments on the online print at The Globe, social media and random strangers looking me up to find my email address to tell me their horror dog poop stories – it's been a fun few days.
