new face of fiction
I went to the Gladstone last night to a Chapters & BookLounge.ca VIP event for The New Face of Fiction and had a fantastic time. My favourite part, I’ll admit is being able to (after the move) come home after work AND head downtown a couple of hours later because it isn’t ridiculously far [...]
