Everything is So Political -- Coming Soon!

Jan 03, 2013

I just wrapped up my sneak peak reading of Everything is So Political, a collection of short fiction that will hit bookstores this May. I’ve been bedazzled by these courageous and powerful stories by writers across Canada, each focusing on political fiction. I’m delighted that my story “Elephant Air,” first published byFreeFall Magazine, is included in the mix. I can’t think of better company.

“Sometimes the political seems so ugly that we would like to take the high road and avoid it. Yet everything is political for a reason. Freedom is never safe from greed, be it for money or power. Democracy exists only in the exercise. Therefore, the more we know, the more we must tussle and spin.” — From the foreword, by Fred Stenson

Stay tuned for more news as Everything is So Political gets closer to launch.
