Jordan Stewart made us this sweet poster for a reading in Saint John this weekend. He also arranged this sweet reading for us.
Members of the Vagabond Trust will be at Scheherazade Book Store, 116 Prince William Street in St. John, this Saturday, March 21st, at 3PM.
So:
Wilser’s Room, 8pm, Saturday March 14, the launch of the Winter 2009 QWERTY!
Featuring writing by almost all members of our lit. contingent.
This is awesome.
Come get your well-bound, ISSN coded, Genuine Canadian Magazine and hear some of the Trust members read their favourite pieces from the issue (not our own, we’re modest).
Also featurning yarn-spinning by Riverview’s Danny Jacobs, Vanessa Moeller and Kathy Mac.
Oh, and the Picaroons, as always, was brewed by me (or Esty).

The Vagabond Trust is starting a Toronto Chapter. Founded in the Maritimes, the group creates space for writers to workshop, showcase and create their work through a writers group, reading series and annual expedition. The group are professional poets, prose writers and theatre artists who have had their respective work published or performed across Canada. Interested writers should submit a resume, writing sample (3 poems/5pages of fiction/non-fiction or writing for screen/television) and short paragraph about why you would like to become a member of The Trust to: thevagabondtrust@gmail.com.
Well, the title summed this one up pretty well. The Vagabond Trust was mentioned on Broken Pencil’s blog. So, uh, if you’ve wandered in from those parts, come on in and take your shoes off. Stay awhile. Rummage through our medicine cabinet.
Howdy everyone,
I’m pumped! Not only does the new issue of Qwerty (Winter ‘09) come out this month (featuring damn near all of the writers in the Trust family), but I just got an e-mail today from Inscribed: A Magazine for Writers that they have published my story Her Bargain Kingdom in their March issue (in print and on-line) at:

Campeye Comet is right, persistence is heartache, but it eventually pays off.

Vagabond Stephanie Yorke says:
12th of March, at 7pm, at the Garrison Ale House, I am going to be part of CBC’s poetry slam. I don’t know if this is a Picaroons approved shop, but if it isn’t, you should go and drink something other than non-picaroons beer. There will be four other competitors - Shane Neilsen, Nela Rio, Biff Mitchell, and Vanessa Moeller. Also, music.
