NEWS & EVENTS
​
​After a very busy Fall 2024, I have (so far) no readings, signings, talks or other public events scheduled for winter 2025, but if that changes, I'll update here as well as on my Facebook page, always a good place to get my most current news. You can also sign up to my newsletter for any updates on events I'm doing.

VIRTUAL/VIDEO EVENTS ARCHIVE
​
-
My reading from A Company of Rogues at Ochre Fest 2024 is available on video now at the Rogers TV website. My part starts about 20 minutes in, but don't skip past the reader before me, Xaiver Michael Campbell, because he's great too!
-
In late November 2021, Such Miracles and Mischiefs had the amazing luck of being released at almost the exact same time as the Omicron variant of Covid-19, so instead of a live launch, I got to be part of Breakwater Books' online "Fall Showcase." You can see my video here.
-
In July 2020, instead of reading from A Roll of the Bones at the annual festival at Ochre Pit Cove, I did a video reading; you can see all the beautifully-produced videos, including mine, at their website.
-
I've done a couple of Facebook Live Reading/Q&A events (and probably will do more, even without pandemic restrictions, because it's a fun way to connect with readers far and near.) Here's one I did in May 2020, when A Roll of the Bones was out and I was working on Such Miracles and Mischiefs; here's another from February 2022, when Such Miracles had been out for a few months and I was really missing out on live events! (I also did one in March 2024 which I fully intended to link here, but I forgot to save it before the 30-day period in which it expired from my Facebook page. Sorry!)
​
I love visiting book clubs! I'm happy to visit your book club in person if you're in the St. John's/Mount Pearl/CBS area; I can also visit by Skype or Zoom or whatnot if you're meeting virtually. If your book club is planning to read any of my books, and you'd like me to visit, click the "Contact" button above and drop me a line. You can also go the "Discuss" page for some resources.
Past Events
It was such an honour when Most Anything You Please won the 2019 NL Reads competition, sponsored by NL Public Libraries and CBC Newfoundland and Labrador, and the accompanying Margaret Duley Award. Here are all the nominees with our reader/defenders:
In September 2016 I visited the Holyrood Library for a book club meeting and discussion with this lovely group! I love book clubs and I'd be glad to come to yours.
On April 21, 2015, I participated in an event at Government House in St. John's, celebrating the 90th anniversary of Newfoundland women winning the right to vote and run for public office. Here's my video report on that event:
Official launch of A Sudden Sun at the Quidi Vidi Brewing Company, October 16, 2014
