4 upcoming Ontario readings

Kayt Burgess
Like the eponymous band in her 3DNC-winning novel, Kayt Burgess will be touring the towns of her home province of Ontario. If you live near one of these towns, come out and get a rare peek into Canada’s indie-rock world with a reading from Heidegger Stairwell, her wonderful, gender- and genre-bending book. The events are all free, they’ll all be fun, and they’re a great chance to meet local 3DNC veteran and contest champion.

Toronto Event: Chiaroscuro Reading Series

Snowmen by Mark Sedore
One great way to recover from the rigours of the 3-Day Novel Contest is to get a taste of the kind of fiction that can be conceived during the marathon—and one such opportunity is coming up in Toronto.
Our 2009 3DN winner, Mark Sedore, will read from his winning novel this Wednesday, September 14, as part of the fabulous Chiaroscuro Reading Series. This edition of the regular event, called A Chill In the Air, features Mark alongside Helen Marshall and Katherine Govier, who will each present their own dark and deliciously chilly visions of the future.
