Happy news, fellow writers. As the man himself would say, we’re all super-excited for Tyler Keevil. The BA course leader has been shortlisted for the Writers’ Trust of Canada Journey Prize<\/a> for his story ‘Sealskin.’ The Journey Prize is a major literary award with a $10,000 first prize, and Tyler is one of three finalists alongside Lori McNulty and Clea Young. He’ll be flying out to Toronto for the award ceremony at the Glenn Gould studio on November 4th, when the overall winner will be revealed. Tyler may be getting pretty used to award ceremonies, but we’re not quite believing the claim on his official website<\/a> that he’s hired a fashion adviser. There’s certainly been no evidence of that around uni.<\/p>\n

\"The<\/a><\/p>\n

You can read a conversation between Tyler and Miriam Toews in the National Post\u00a0<\/em>here<\/a>, and if you want to read the story itself, get a copy of\u00a0Tyler’s collected short fiction, Burrard Inlet<\/em><\/a> – it is, as Tyler would put it, super sweet.<\/p>\n

Our poets are riding a wave too. Last year\u2019s third year poetry group have had more success: Adam Magee has a poem up at the ezine I<\/em>nk Sweat & Tears<\/em><\/a>\u00a0 and has two poems forthcoming in Domestic Cherry<\/em>, the annual journal of Swindon Poetry Festival. Rosanna Riches and Josh Martin both have poems in issue six of Angle Poetry Journal<\/a>.<\/em><\/p>\n

\"Wales<\/a>The poetry lecturers are also busy publishing: Angela France has a poem in an anthology of longer narrative poems, The Other Side of Sleep<\/em> (Arachne Press), has three poems in Domestic Cherry,<\/em> and a poem in Wales Arts Review<\/a>. <\/em>While\u00a0Nigel McLoughlin has had poems published in The Honest Ulsterman<\/em>\u00a0and Under The Radar <\/em>as well as poems forthcoming in New Writing, The Wolf,<\/em> and The Stony Thursday Book. <\/em>\u00a0There is an interview with Nigel\u00a0in Axon, <\/em>which you can read online here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Not to be out done, there’s also fresh success for one of our playwrights. Senja\u00a0Andrejevic-Bullock, who is studying for a Master’s degree, recently saw her short play ‘The Bargain’ performed script-in-hand by Touring Theatre Consortium at The Everyman Theatre.<\/p>\n

Good luck Tyler and congratulations to all our stars!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
