Le Jam maintenant le Mardi!

Pour éviter les poètes nudistes, les slameux islamistes et les musiciens folk-néo-trotskistes, le Comix Jam change d'horaire. Le Jam se déroule maintenant tous les derniers Mardi du mois. Comme d'habitude à L'Escalier au 552 Sainte-Catherine est, à 19h30. Il n'y a pas de Comix Jam en Décembre.

Des milliards de pages!

Bon, j'exagère un peu (si peu!), mais c'est tout de même impressionnant. Max Douglas, alias Salgood Sam, alias Salguod Xam alias... (bon, passons) vient d'en numériser une quantité remarquable sur Facebook.

Une menace mise à exécution


Voici une page terminée récemment (bon, disons dans la dernière année) lors d'une de nos soirées à l'Escalier. Depuis le temps qu'on se promet de vous en montrer une... Comme je n'y ai pas personnellement participé, je prie les vaillants artistes et les connaisseurs en la matière de faire l'identification à ma place. Vive la bande dessinée!

The Great Canadian Literary Hunt adds a category: Graphic Narrative


The 14th annual Great Canadian Literary Hunt has begun. For 14 years now This Magazine has surveyed this vast country for the best and brightest in Canadian new fiction and poetry and this year, just to keep things interesting, we’ve added a new category. For the first time, we’ll award a prize for best graphic narrative (think graphic novel, but way shorter).

It’s the same great contest you know and love with great cash prizes, plus publication in an issue of This Magazine and exposure to our nationwide readership that includes top publishers, writers, artists and editors.

Past winners of the Great Canadian Literary Hunt have gone on to be recognized by the National Magazine Awards, the Journey Prize, and the Trillium Book Award; many have been published by the top houses in the country and are among the most exciting talent in fiction and poetry today.

You could be next! Just send your entries by July 2, 2010 and join This Magazine's 44-year tradition of heralding the brightest talents in Canadian arts and letters.

Questions? Just email hunt@this.org or visit this.org/lithunt for more information.

1. Original, unpublished poems of up to 100 lines, short stories of up to 2,500 words and graphic stories of up to two pages (8”x11”) by Canadian citizens or residents are eligible.

2. Emerging new writers, opposed to well-established authors, are encouraged to participate.

3. First prize in each category is $750 plus publication in a special literary supplement to the Nov/Dec 2010 issue. Second and third prize in each category is a lovely This Magazine prize pack, plus publication in the literary supplement.

4. Entry fees: $25 for one short story, two poems, or one graphic story. Entry fee includes a one-year subscription to This Magazine*. Each additional entry is $5. Entry fees can be paid by Paypal, personal cheque or money order payable to This Magazine.

5. Entrant’s name MUST NOT appear on the submission itself. All entries must be accompanied by a separate cover sheet with entrant’s full name, address, postal code, telephone number, e-mail address, submission title(s) and category.

6. A list of winners will be available at this.org. Mailed manuscripts will not be returned. Winners will be contacted by telephone.

7. Entrants must agree to be bound by the contest rules. Judges’ decisions are final.

8. Entries should be submitted electronically to: hunt@this.org (graphic stories must be submitted in PDF form), or postmarked no later than July 2, 2010 and mailed to: THE GREAT CANADIAN LITERARY HUNT c/o This Magazine, 401 Richmond St. W., Suite 396, Toronto, Ontario M5V 3A8
