This post is a reminder about the fast approaching Grey Borders Literary Arts Festival, happening throughout the month of June. The festival will feature many writers, including Catherine Owen, Terry Trowbridge, Adam Dickinson, and Gregory Betts. I will be joining other executives of the Brock Creative Writing Club at a book sale at the Niagara Falls Public Library on Saturday, June 4 from 10:00-5:00. See you there!
A message from yr parting president (N.B. Excuse the spelling mistake and/or grammar errors. I was rushed and late for work but I had this incredible urge to write it and not delay it any longer):
So this is, I feel, overdue (or some would feel unnecessary): I need to extend a great big thank you to a bunch, to who I all mentioned in some way or a garbled other at the BUCWC Anthology Launch of ‘this book is about you.’
I wanted to scream ‘WE DID IT’ and maybe high-five every person that I…
The BUCWC is glad to announce the launch of the 2010-2011 Anthology “this book is about you”
Date: April 21, 2011
Time: 8:00pm-10:00pm
Place: Pan Cafe (120 St. Paul street, St. Catharines)
Come one and all to celebrate the launch of the anthology!
Hear readers read from the anthology!
The anthology will be sold at the launch of course!
All who have submitted to the anthology are encouraged to read and to invite friends and family!
The launch will be held at Pan Cafe at promptly 8pm and will continue to roughly 10pm. From there who knows what will happen afterward!
If there are any transportation issues, contact Phil at pm07iv@brocku.ca. Also contact me to let me know if you are reading!
Hope to see you all there!

So, I must apologize the lack of updates I’ve posted on the blog. It’s been a busy month and a bit since the postponement of a.rawlings’ workshop and reading which did occur on Thursday Feb. 17 and what a wonderful experience angela provided for the workshoppers and for those that attended her reading. All the best and thanks to angela for such an awesome day!
Now here is updates for the next few weeks:
Just reminding you that Jade’s workshops on Monday and Wednesday now no longer are happening. Helen, as of right now, is running her Wednesday workshop. Her Thursday workshop will now be run by me for the time being!
For the next two weeks we have some non-BUCWC events, but BUCWC related that you should all check out: on March 4th, a man by the name of Duncan is holding a reading at Fine Grind from 8pm-11pm. Here is the Facebook event page, he is still looking for
readers/performers:

AND ONE LAST IMPORTANT MESSAGE:
We are nearing the end of the year which means CLUB ELECTIONS. I told you last semester to keep in mind if you would like to run for an exec position. All spots will be opened up. There is President, Vice-President, Treasurer, and 2 Editor positions. You can run for more than one position. What the process is like: we meet together, you present your speech (doesn’t have to be long) why you want this position, and why you should be whatever you are running for. The speeches are categorized by position, and if you are the only one running for a position, you win by default. It’s that easy! So start
thinking! The date has not been set, but will be in late March.
Phew!
Cheers,
Phil Miletic
Lindsay Cahill, Cipher #8
