I’ve been lucky enough to have work selected for three new
anthologies. The tricky bit has been the fact that launch events for all of
them have been over the course of the last week. Exhausting? Yes. Nonetheless,
exciting, that’s for sure.
One of the books, Jack Layton: Art in Action, commemorates
Jack Layton, the best prime minister Canada never got the chance to have. The
other two – Force Field and Alive at the Center – are strictly poetry, a
most appropriate way to observe National Poetry Month, a celebration that
takes place throughout the month of April, not only here in Canada, but also in the U.S.
Even if you don’t consider yourself a poet, take some time
to appreciate the beauty this month brings. In case some words of wonder
whisper themselves in your ear, write ’em down. Who knows, you may find that they
turn themselves into a poem.
