alberta, writing

a new blog, anticipating my time at the University of Alberta this fall, as writer in residence, & an extension of such, as well; today I found out Vancouver poet Marita Dachsel [see my review of her first book here] will be there, as her husband is playwrite-in-residence at UofA the same time I'm there; a new blog to talk about writing, events, & whatever else happens during that time I'm in town. Until then, read the piece "On (Not) Being an Alberta Writer: or, anticipating UofA" from The Danforth Review...

& I arrive at the beginning of September, if anyone asks. a bit premature, perhaps, but better early than late?
