Who Was Your Author Crush?

We hope you had a chance to enjoy a lovely spring season so far, packed with pure fun and great reads as Wordfest welcomed authors Yann Martel, Micah White, Sam Maggs, Chris Cleave and Michael Crummey to Calgary’s stages.

In case you missed out on past events this season, we’ve collected all the news coverage, social media buzz and fan pics from recent shows using Storify — an online platform that puts the “fun” into event recaps. This April, we even had a chance to record and share the full audio of Micah White’s live interview with Blake Brooker at the Big Secret Theatre!

P.S. We haven’t announced it yet, so you’re the first to know. Tickets go on sale next week for a chance to hear from international bestselling author Susan Casey on July 6, 2016. Casey is editor in chief of O, The Oprah Magazine and a National Magazine Award-winning journalist whose international bestseller, The Devil’s Teeth, delved deep into the struggle for survival among America’s great white sharks. We’ll give you the full scoop on her forthcoming book, Voices in the Ocean, in our next email to you.
