Wayde Compton, an award-winning Vancouver author and creative writing instructor, has taken over as director of The Writer’s Studio, a creative writing program at Simon Fraser University Continuing Studies.

 

Compton, the co-founder of Western Canada’s first and only black literary press, took up his new post in January 2012.

 

In a review of Compton’s most recent book, David Chariandy, a colleague, said that Compton is “among the most brilliant and accomplished black Canadian writers of his generation.”

 

Those words struck a chord with the search team at SFU Continuing Studies—they knew they should take notice of the soft-spoken writer, teacher, and musician.

Poet Molly Peacock – November 18, 2008

Patrons flexed their creative muscles at a writing workshop at Bainbridge Library.

The County of Brant Public Library would like to formally thank everyone who made the wonderfully successful Young Authors Project possible!

 

Funded by the Ontario Trillium Foundation, the Young Authors Project was a special project sponsored by Kids Can Fly, The Brantford Expositor, and the County of Brant Public Library.

 

Writer-in-residence-for-youth Lauren Kirshner lead the project, which gave 22 lucky local youth the chance to hone their writing craft under the mentorship of a published author.

 

The final product, 22 Pairs of Shoes, was launched at a special reception at the Brant Sports Complex where the participants received congratulations and a copy of the final published magazine.

For our last day of CW we went over some things about publication and how to dicipline ourselves as writers. Behind Ice Bat is a list of things us writers need to keep in mind:

 

* Time: protect our writing time! We should not let things like phones, internet, and friends/family interrupt our writing time.

 

*Presents: Its a motivation tool. Like finish 3 pages in the next hour and get yourself a cookie -- or something like that.

 

* Track writing time.

 

* Vacation: Genuine relaxation time so you won't get fried. Plus new experiences always help out w/ writing in the long run. =)

I look complete and I don’t show the fault.

I even sound unblemished, if you beat

My skin with a drumstick. When you pour salt

All over me, I’ll cry to make it sweet.

 

The crack-up is so thin… it’s on my head

A hair among my locks, barely there:

It never hurts, it does not heal nor spread

I only feel it when I comb my hair.

 

Come summer, I’m out of tune: I sing off-key

Shaking my head at long forgotten jigs

In dark red moans I dance, my arms a tree

Flowering blood from my unfolded twigs.

 

We always watch the pieces in order to perceive

The whole: in our blindness that’s all we still believe.
