We recently posted a note about an exciting new initiative Open Book is part of, Ontario: Read It Here. You can read even more about this project on Torontoist: Books. Erin Balser has written a detailed and engaging article about the initiative. Balser points out that, "Relating geography and the written word is a hot trend right now," and touches on other interesting projects about place and literature.

Lessons from Gail Anderson-Dargatz, author of Turtle Valley

Last night, I participated in a literary reading with Gail Anderson-Dargatz. She is one of Canada's grandest literary stars, so I studied her approach meticulously. Like all young writers, I too would like to be one of Canada's grandest literary stars, and one ignores the qualities of grandness at one's peril.

I made notes afterward.

Note the First: Make it personal.
