秀色短视频's Winter's Tales Authors' Reading Series kicks off the 2014 season with a public reading on February 6 at 7:30 pm in the Confederation Centre Public Library by 秀色短视频 writer-in-residence Don Gayton. An ecologist and award-winning nature and science writer, Gayton will be at 秀色短视频 from February 3-8, with his residence hosted by the Department of English and the Environmental Studies Program.
Canadian radio broadcaster Stuart McLean describes Gayton as 'having the eye of a scientist and the soul of a poet.'
Gayton will also deliver two public writing workshops on Saturday, February 8, in the 秀色短视频 Faculty Lounge, Main Building. The workshops are entitled 'Nature Writing: where do we go from here?' and 'Ecology As Literature: how ecology provides new material for writers of fiction, non-fiction, and poetry.'
