I leave tomorrow for Haida Gwaii. Two weeks. A reading tomorrow night at Howler’s Pub, with CBC’s Voice of the North, Betsy Trumpener, then another Sunday, at the Tlell Fall Fair.

At Howler’s I will read from 8x10, and maybe the “Lowry” piece from the “Moodyville" issue of the Capilano Review. For Tlell I will read a piece specifically written for the fair, on gardening.

As for the ten days remaining, the Haida Gwaii Arts Council, in conjunction with authors Susan Musgrave and Adele Weder, have set up some garden and studio visits, which I am also looking forward to.
