Award for Wayde is well-deserved. Incredible.
“Since 1989, the annual City of Vancouver Book Award has been recognizing authors of excellence of any genre who contribute to the appreciation and understanding of Vancouver’s history, unique character, or the achievements of its residents.
The $3,000 prize is funded by the City’s Publishing Reserve, which was established in 1977 as a permanent legacy for Vancouver writers and publishers.”

A great opportunity for writers in BC aged 50 and over!
“The Cedric Literary Awards have been created specifically to recognize and celebrate unpublished BC writers of fiction, creative non-fiction, and poetry, and First Nations storytellers. We want to play a key role in: encouraging unpublished writers who may not have considered publishing their work previously; providing a forum for previously unpublished work by BC writers and storytellers; and celebrating their achievements. We believe that writers aged 50 and over have had a lifetime of experience to share in writing[.]”
