Ah. That explains the sharp pains in my prodding places this morning...

FINE!

The prodding has to stop...

Does this help?



(Thanks, y'all.)

Yay! Here comes the novella.

What about the short story collection?

How in the name of sweet Jesus Smith did you get a novella deal!

I can't wait to get my hands on it. You have to tell us when it's actually in the brick and mortars, Rob.

I LOVE Michael Slade. He is a crimal defense lawyer, having worked many famous murder trials. He gives a big dose of Canadian history/politics/culture in amongst his amazing stories. Very well written-dark, creepy, smart, intriguing. My favourite is Ghoul.

Two of my all time favourite writers are Canadian: Carol Shields and Alice Munro. I recommend every single book those two have written!

I also saw someone mentioned Michael Ondaatje, and although I think of him as much a Sri Lankan writer as a Canadian, I would also recommend Anil's Ghost which I finished a few weeks ago. Good book.
