TWO YSP AUTHORS SHORT-LISTED FOR FOR GREATER SUDBURY POET LAUREATE

Either Kim Fahner or Roger Nash will be named Sudbury's Poet Laureate in January. Kim and Roger were among the earliest authors YSP published, and they did us proud! After she published You Must Imagine the Cold Here (YSP 1997) Kim was short-listed for the CAA  Air Canada Award for Writers Under 30. Roger's In the Kosher Chow Mein Restaurant (YSP 1996) won the Canadian Jewish book Award for Poetry for 1997. We wish them both good luck!
