"A reticulated python takes one hour to swallow a human body whole. Or at least that’s what Putri, our on-resort host/servant/paid friend, told us back at the pergola–"

Exactly 1 yr ago, I announced that I was wrapping up W&C. Listeners responded, hoping for access to a digital archive. Now I’m thrilled that the complete 33-year run -1000 hrs- will be available to anyone, free of charge! CBC has partnered w/ SFU’s Special Collections +RareBooks.
The only thing better than publishing one of my favourite stories in the stellar @AQReview is reading all the other fantastic pieces inside. Truly a great read. Highly recommend everyone grab/download a copy!

In 48 years, Room has seen BIPOC-led and 2SLGBTQ+ led publications, events, and initiatives flourish. Our pages & programming are the most vibrant they've ever been.
But without help from our community, we'll be in trouble this fall.

ALT 1: Overlaid on a pink-tinted graphic of Room magazine issues, black text on a cream background reads: "ROOM needs your help to keep going. For over 48 years, we've been proud to be Canada's oldest feminist literary journal. Our small nonprofit has carved out a space in Canadian literary publishing where underrepresented voices can thrive. It's this community that's kept us going. Now, we need your help."
ALT Overlaid on a pink gradient background, black text on a cream box reads: In 48 years, we've celebrated 188 issues, 2500+ contributors, 500+ events. But printing and shipping costs and the cost of a living wage is rising. To pay our contributors, editors, and staff equitably ⎯ to keep bringing together readers, writers, publishers, booksellers, and local businesses to celebrate each other and the writing and art at the heart of what we do ⎯ Room needs your support."
Many thanks for having me on. Really enjoyed our conversation.

Also very old news now, but hey, I only log in here twice a year and back issues are a thing. Many thanks to @TheFiddlehd for publishing my story "After the Crash" in their spring 2022 issue. One of my favourite lit mags and this one's full of great reads. thefiddlehead.ca/issue/291
Big thanks to @EclecticaMag for publishing by far my craziest story, "Code 3."
