This event at Kwantlen University promises to be fascinating. If you don't believe me, check out some of the titles of these panels! I'm looking forward to giving the Keynote for Canadian Culinary Imaginations. Registration for the conference in the link below:

And finally, two of my favorite writers, Ellen Bass and Pam Houston, are going to be giving workshops in B.C. Registration now open, and I promise they will be astonishing.
THE WORLD SPLIT OPEN
with Ellen Bass
June 3 - 5, 2016
Nanoose Bay, BC, Canada
This weekend all of us—men and women—will journey into the world of truth-telling. But it isn’t so easy to tell the truth. Not only do we need courage, but we need craft. We’ll strive for language that is accurate, fresh, and alive and we’ll learn strategies to help us write poems whose form, music, rhythm, diction, and meaning work together as a powerful whole.
THE GLINT OF LIGHT ON BROKEN GLASS
A Workshop in Writing Stories, Essays and Poems
with Pam Houston and Ellen Bass
August 21 - 27, 2016
The Inn at Lake Connamarra, Hope, B. C. Canada
In this workshop we will open our eyes to see, hear, smell, touch, and taste the world. Then we’ll look for words that describe that glint of light on broken glass. Whether it’s fiction, non-fiction, or poetry, all strong writing explores an experience—drawn from life or from imagination—and delivers it so vividly and immediately that a reader doesn’t just hear about it, but lives it.
