What's Up?

The Fiddlehead would like to remind its readers and supporters that there is still time to donate to Galloway Suit Defense Fund: https://ca.gofundme.com/galloway-suit-defense-fund.

Our Creative Nonfiction editor, Alicia Elliott, is one of the women being sued. We stand behind her integrity as an editor and support her right to a legal defense. 

The odd sundays event on December 16th will be the last at its usual location of Corked Wine Bar, 83 Regent St. It will feature a slightly different format from the norm. The main portion of the afternoon will be a retrospective on the poetry of Margaret MacQuarrie-McLeod, who recently died after a lengthy illness. Margaret’s poetry will be read by members of the Wolf Tree Writers Group, of which Margaret was a founding member. That will be followed by two open sets on a seasonal theme.

It was indeed unfortunate that the weather forces conspired against us on November 4, and that afternoon’s session had to be cancelled. Many people, including our host - Corked - lost power; many still have not had their power resumed. Our hope is that situation will be remedied soon.

Now into our fall 2018 season, odd sundays continues on Sunday, November 4 with a returning guest and a new one to our series. As usual we will gather at 2 PM at Corked Wine Bar, 83 Regent St. Our regular audience continues to grow, so come join in, get a drink from Charlotte, a book draw ticket and add your name to the Open Mic set. Make plans to attend and hear the fine work of Travis Lane and Nathaniel G. Moore.
