This year, Makeda Silvera will be the main reader. This Toronto- based writer is well-known as the co-founder and managing editor of Sister Vision Press.
She has brought stories from her Carribbean background to the fore, including novels, anthologies, short stories, and feminist studies. Her works include: The Heart Does Not Bend, Piece of My Heart and Man Royals and Sodomites.
She was a member of the editorial collective of Fireweed, a feminist journal. She was also a member of Zami, a Toronto based community organization for Black and Caribbean gays and lesbians, started in 1984.
Also we are hoping to hear Pat Brown, a writer of Gay male detective fiction.
The evening starts at 7: 00 and ends around 10.
