Hey there,

I found a good website devoted to Rose Blanche, NFLD. (our first overnight stop back on the ought eight voyage). It deals mostly with the community’s landmark lighthouse and five eerie shipwrecks which occurred just off its coast. Check it out in the Links.

Word Riot

I also thought you folks might be keen to submit to the on-line lit. journal Word Riot. There is some good stuff there and they seem to be committed to keeping on keeping on.

New Vagabonds dubbed and anointed!

Category: Uncategorized — Jordan Trethewey @ 7:40 pm

It is with great, sagely pride I announce the full induction of two new kick-ass writers to the traveling fold:

Sundog Tremolo Erin Keating in Fredericton, and

Sagebrush Tiger Blair Trewartha in Toronto.

Erin is a much sought-after female proser out for blood with her ink sword.

Blair is the steadfast, beating poetic pulse in Tdot joining Sweetback Twist and Campeye Comet directing the Trust chapter in town.

Blair is also launching a chapbook “Break In” in the T-dot on Feb. 4.

I’ve added a link on the sidebar for my cousin Mackenzie Beck’s page. He is an animator early in his career. I’m pumped ’cause he is working on a concept of mine.

Wings: Heavy with Snow

Hogtown/Cowtown/Saint City Update my national migrants . . .

Darrah and I are still hopping rails across the country, officially against the concept of “permanent address”. D just had a play reading in T-dot in early January (let’s nudge her for details). As for Campeye, this Fall I’ve been fortunate enough to have work published in The Fiddlehead, CV2 and GULCH: An Assemblage of Poetry and Prose. Like our Cannonball Captain, I am now working on a novel. Yeehaw, as they say in the unWilds of the West.

The best news to come out of the Western East to date, however, is that Darrah and I have teamed up with a most stellar bloke, Blair Trewartha. He is our Hogtown Anchor, our ‘Nautical Outlast’ if you will. Blair is launching his chapbook of poetry, “Break In” (Cactus Press) at the Misunderstandings magazine launch Thursday Feb 4, 7:30 PM at the Black Swan Tavern in Toronto. Hopefully he will join us for the 2010 Writers Expedition.

Speaking of expeditions . . . word on the web is that we now have our own tent! All we need now is a Powning sword. And maybe some beans. And a video camera.

Let’s get on the itinerary. Skype summit!! Doughnut Philosopher, you’re in charge of technifying the Merrytimes chapter so we can convene.

Tally-ho, rally-yo!

a poem fer ya

Category: general information — Jordan Trethewey @ 3:29 pm

I figured this poem (Shopping for Pomegranates at Wal-Mart on New Year’s Day) I came across might satisfy the poetic proclivities of some of you Vagabonds. JT
