ARTISTIC WORK
Hidden Histories and Untold Stories: Non-fiction Writing for the 21st Century, 2019. The Saskatchewan Writer’s Guild invited me to teach a three-hour workshop on non-fiction writing which was held 18 of September in Regina, SK. This was a “full” class with 15 writers from the community, including faculty from the University of Regina, published non-fiction writers, and new writers looking to hone their skills. Months after the class concluded I was still getting emails from students asking me to assess their work and in December 2019 one participant (Norma Galambos) emailed to share her story was published in the winter edition of Prairies North Magazine. Based on this and from the enrolment, enthusiasm, and post class reviews, I judge this workshop a complete success.
Stubblejumper 2008. Historical consultant, on-camera interview and historical research credit for this documentary film which analyzes the life and times of Saskatchewan gay activist Doug Wilson. The film premiered in Regina, and has since appeared at a variety of regional, national and international film festivals, including: Inside Out Film Festival (Toronto) May 18, 2009; the Philadelphia GLBT Arts Festival, May 29, 2009; and the Fairy Tales International Queer Film Festival (Calgary), May 31, 2009 and the Globins Film Festival (Berlin), August 14, 2009.
