Hackmatack award video
The Hackmatack award ceremony from Charlottetown P.E.I. last May, was recently posted online. I just watched it and ... it was great to see everyone again! My little speech about Charlotte's Web and gargoyles kind of made sense. And best of all? I sat beside (and got to know) the lovely Ashley Spires!
Here, in its entirety, is the link to the Hackmatack award ceremony. All 11 authors are on here, it was a blast meeting them. Give a listen, you'll hear Ashley Spires, Dan Bar-El, Rob Laidlaw, me, and lots of other talented Canadian authors. If you want to see my little blip, I'm around the 33 minute mark (and thanks to Simon, my presenter and really nice kid): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TuJzO... Enjoy!

Loved the video. Liked finding out about Hackmatack, enjoyed your brief speech (and to see you as more than a face on a page) but loved best all the wonderful intros from the young people. Congratulations to you and to the Hackmatack people for such a program and for the ceremony.

thanks Rie! Yes, the young readers are really the best part of the whole program, since they are what it's all about. Meeting the other authors is pretty fun too. I felt really honoured to be there (glad you liked my speech, not sure what I said at the time!) PD
