SUMMARY:Richard Kelly Kemick at Calgary Wordfest: The Way We... Wear
DESCRIPTION:Richard Kelly Kemick\, author of Hello\, Horse (Aug 6\, 2024)\, will be appearing at the Calgary Wordfest’s Imaginairium Festival’s event\, “The Way We… Wear.” Richard will be joined by fellow writers Anne Enright\, Holly Gramazio\, Jenny Heijun Wills\, Sarah Leavitt\, Canisia Lubrin\, Marissa Stapley\, and Tanya Talaga. The eight writers tell a story about a piece of clothing that became more than just a garment. A lucky left sock? A silk kimono dug up from the bottom of a vintage trunk? The horrible dress your father made you wear to school? The beauty of The Way We… is that we can’t possibly predict what you’ll hear\, but we *can* predict you’ll be telling your friends\, “You had to be there!” Books will be made available for sale and signing by Owl’s Nest Books. \nThe event will take place on Saturday\, October 19 at 7:30PM. \nTickets and more details here. \nGrab Hello\, Horse here! \nABOUT HELLO\, HORSE \nTaut\, stylish stories take on big moral questions from surprising perspectives. \nA teenager’s job mucking stalls at a dog track takes a strange turn when his co-worker finds a new religion at odds with winning streaks. Two brothers set out in search of fame upon the frozen waters of a subarctic lake. After her mother’s death\, a high school student tries to make rent by winning the Unitarian Church’s Annual Young Writer’s Short Story Competition. An incarcerated man considers the nature of justice between shifts with his fellow inmates at Nations at War\, the ultimate live-action experience for tourists eager to learn about the Canadian Civil War. \nSpanning states and provinces\, and featuring an apocalypse\, a coterie of ghosts\, nuns on ice\, and an above-average number of dogs\, the stories in Hello\, Horse consider the mirage of authenticity and the impact of decisions we make—for better and for worse. \nABOUT RICHARD KELLY KEMICK \nRichard Kelly Kemick is an award-winning poet\, journalist\, and fiction writer. His limited series podcast\, Natural Life\, is an intimate and unexpectedly honest documentary on his cousin\, who is serving a life sentence without parole in Michigan. Richard is also the author of I Am Herod (also on audiobook)\, which takes readers undercover at one of the world’s largest religious events\, and Caribou Run\, a collection of poetry. He is the recipient of multiple awards including two National Magazine Awards and the Writers’ Guild of Alberta’s 2019 Award for Best Short Story. He lives in Vancouver\, British Columbia.
