NeWest Press authors are getting into the book trailer game in a big way! First up, a video for Barb Howard's new collection of short stories, Western Taxidermy, which was released this past March. Says author Lori Hahnel, Western Taxidermy "serves up stories of comedy and tragedy in unflinching detail, underscored with bang-on observations and razor-sharp wit, all presented in spare, evocative language." Watch the trailer here.
It's that time again, Edmonton book afficionados! The FICTIONistas event is crossing the country yet again, with stops in Vancouver, Calgary, Edmonton, Winnipeg, and Toronto. The Edmonton event will be taking place on Monday, May 7 at 7pm, at Audreys Books in downtown Edmonton. The spirited evening will feature readings from Arlene McNeney (The Time We All Went Marching), Margaret MacPherson (Body Trade), and NeWest Press authors Cassie Stocks (Dance, Gladys, Dance) and Barb Howard (Western Taxidermy). The evening will be hosted by none other than Edmonton's own Janice MacDonald.
FICTIONistas is a collaboration among Canadian publishers Coteau Books, Coach House Books, Signature Editions, NeWest Press, and Goose Lane Editions. For more information on the Edmonton leg of the tour, please contact NeWest marketing and production coordinator Andrew Wilmot at
