Author Description

Please Don't Interrupt comprises short works of nonfiction, fiction, and poetry on the subject of interruption. The anthology promotes excellence in Canadian writing, provides an opportunity to emerging writers, celebrates diversity, and builds community. In Please Don't Interrupt, we hear from writers who have immigrated to Canada from South America, from Africa, from Asia, from Europe, for a host of different reasons. We hear from writers living with debilitating illness, from older writers, from Indigenous writers, from Black writers, from writers who are survivors of trauma, from neurodivergent writers. We hear from writers at different points in their lives and in their writing careers.
