Donna Morrissey, Catherine Banks, Shandi Mitchell and Sylvia Gunnery Want to Talk to You!

Come on down to the Potter Auditorium at Dalhousie University this Wednesday evening for a wonderful opportunity to hear Donna Morrissey in conversation with fabulous Fellow Writers. Donna is a gifted writer and fantastic speaker. I guarantee that you will be thoroughly entertained.
This fine literary evening is also when the Atlantic Writing Awards will announce their  2013 short list. Very exciting indeed.
We’re getting set to release the 2013 Atlantic Book Awards shortlist on Wednesday, March 20, and are delighted that Donna Morrissey will help make the announcement event extra-special by hosting a conversation on books and writing with her comrades-in-creativity, playwright Catherine Banks, novelist Sylvia  Gunnery, and filmaker and author Shandi Mitchell. Please see the press release below for further details; you can also print and display this poster.

Lovers of Atlantic writing always turn out in force for our annual shortlist announcement event, which is also an important fundraiser for the Atlantic Book Awards Society, so please show up early to ensure a good seat: tickets are only $12 at the door. See you there!
