La Petite Fée fête ses cinq ans au Salon !

Author: Christina - Published 2011-11-11 20:58 - (1115 Reads)
La Petite Fée fête ses cinq ans au Salon !

C'est avec grand plaisir que La Petite Fée vous invite à découvrir les poètes de la relève et à célébrer ses cinq ans sur la scène poétique québécoise au stand # 204 lors du 29e Salon du livre de Montréal ! L'événement, auquel la maison d'édition artisanale participe pour la première fois cette année, aura lieu du 16 au 20 novembre 2006 à la Place Bonaventure. Plusieurs activités ont été organisées pour souligner le cinquième anniversaire de La Petite Fée, dont deux courts spectacles, la création de poèmes collectifs avec le public, des séances de signature, et une rencontre des bénévoles s'étant impliqués dans la revue Pouèt-cafëe au fil des années.

Mosaïque poétique

Pendant toute la durée du Salon, le public est invité à écrire un vers de cinq mots et à venir le déposer au stand de La Petite Fée. Nous sélectionnerons les meilleurs et les agencerons en des micro-poèmes ; cette "mosaïque poétique" donnera lieu à un recueil collectif à paraître en 2007. Votre chance d'être publié, sans avoir à écrire tout un roman !

Séances de signature

Les quatre auteurs ayant publié leur premier recueil chez La Petite Fée seront présents au stand # 204 :

Christine Douville, Flashs de Mai :
vendredi 17 novembre de 18h à 19h30, et dimanche 19 novembre de 15h à 16h

Eric Moncoucut, Jardin de l'inconscience :
vendredi 17 novembre de 18h à 19h30, et dimanche 19 novembre de 15h à 16h

Content and Form: Writing with Reuse in Mind

Presented by STC-Montreal

Writers, publishers, and researchers are called on every day to produce more content, for more audiences, often with declining budgets and staff.

Yet, no matter what business you work in, efficient and timely communication is crucial to your success. Content is a strategic business asset that needs to be treated as such.

Join us in Montreal on November 4 for a full-day workshop as we explore ways to help you get the most from your investment in content. Learn how planning and writing for reuse, streamlining your localization and internationalization processes, and using templates and technology can save your company time and money...

Where and When
Thursday November 4th: 9:30 a.m. until 5 p.m.
Montreal, Quebec
M.450 at the Grande Bibliothèque,
475, boulevard De Maisonneuve Est
Metro Berri

Introducing DOCTOR IN WAR AND PEACE, the memoir of Tom Henry Wilson

Author: Christina - Published 2011-10-05 10:55 - (3496 Reads)
'Back in the 90s, my father, Tom Wilson, decided to record what he considered to have been a pretty good life. I do not think that it would have crossed his mind that it would be published, and for him I suspect it was an interesting exercise that the family might like to read when completed...' Crichton Wilson, Editor and Publisher of Tom Wilson's Memoir.

Upstage on CKUT with Estelle Rosen, RADIO CKUT. 90.3FM, Thursdays at 6pm

Author: Christina - Published 2011-09-25 21:36 - (3218 Reads)

UPSTAGE: Listen to Estelle Rosen's interviews on the theatre scene in Montreal on RADIO CKUT:


The term “upstage” in theatre refers to the area at the back of the stage, behind the action down front. Similarly, UPSTAGE theatre-on-radio offers an opportunity to those productions in the background; amateur, community, student, experimental, avantgarde. In other words, we give a voice to those in the theatre community that might otherwise not be heard.

Since June 30, 1995, UPSTAGE has been exploring all aspects of the world of theatre. From stage elements as lighting and set design to panel discussions on the role of theatre critics, and conversations with actors, directors and playwrights.

In that time, it's been most gratifying to be part of the ever evolving Montreal theatre world. It's been my pleasure to have played some small part in making people aware of the abundance of excellent talent.

By making theatre more accessible to those who are not regular theatregoers, we hope to increase audience interest, particularly for lesser known productions. Estelle Rosen
