Off to Toronto!
Mar. 7th, 2010 11:37 amSo on Friday, I found out that my name was randomly selected for the Harbourfront Open stage on March 31. Twenty poets will be competing in front of judges to see who gets a spot at the International Festival of Authors in Toronto. It's pretty exciting! Last year, about 5 of the 20 poets got to participate in the Festival of Authors. Great promotional gig!
Unfortunately, I have to pay for my own airfare, but I knew that when I signed up. The other hassle was making sure that Fergus will be taken care of while I'm away. Mari has offered to take him for the 3.5 days that I'll be away.
I'm excited!
Now I just need a place to stay.
