All are welcome to this free event, but pre-registration is required.

About this Event:

A new year has begun and authors/poets are welcomed to share their work of fiction, non-fiction or poetry on Zoom. Whether you choose to share a published piece or a work-in-progress, we’re excited to hear your words!

There are reading spots for 10 Canadian Authors–Toronto members and two non-members. Each person will read for four minutes.

To reserve your spot as a reader, please email CAA–Toronto Secretary Adam Meridan (hellomeridan at gmail.com) with the subject line “Jan open mic and name”.

We are looking forward to hearing your words!

All are welcome to attend, and we hope you’ll invite friends and family to join the audience.

Note: We are requesting readers to present works that do not have any mentions of extreme violence, rape, incest and subjects that could be triggering and reduce the enjoyment of the event for others.
