livewords at the Small Press Fair June 13

livewords will be at the Toronto Small Press Fair this coming Saturday, June 13, with a table shared with our good friends at Misunderstandings Magazine and Cactus Press. Hope to see you there from 9 – 5 at the Toronto Reference Library.

The day will feature readings from Kildare Dobbs and Goran Simić, plus the main fiesta: 80 small- to medium-sized presses from the Greater Toronto Area—and a number from as far afield as Montreal, Calgary, and even Vancouver—gathered in the atrium of the Toronto Reference Library to sell their books, chapbooks, graphic novels, audio-books, magazines and comics, and a wide array of high-quality arts & crafts.
