And it's got my short story, "Adults in Costumes," inside! I'm so very proud to be in
this issue of The Ampersand Review, a journal published as part of Sheridan College's Honours Bachelor of Creative Writing & Publishing Program here in Ontario. The program itself is facing an existential threat due to cuts plaguing many institutions of higher learning across the province, yet the students and faculty editing and publishing this journal push on undeterred. If you see it on your local newsstand, consider picking up a copy. Or better yet,
purchase it online.
Inside issue #8, you're going to find a ton of great stuff, including short fiction by David James Brock (see my 2014 review of his brilliant poetry collection, Everyone is CO2) and myself, poetry by Dennis Lee and Barry Dempster, and an in-depth interview with the inimitable Stuart Ross. I'm especially pleased by the illustrations included with my story, created by artist and designer Kilby Smith-McGregor.
Anyway, go pick up this issue if you can. You won't regret it!
