Originally written for radio broadcast, each story in this jewel-like collection of eerie encounters can be read aloud in about fifteen minutes. Friends and family of all ages are invited to cross over to a world filled with the supernatural shadows of holidays past. With a story for each the twelve days of Christmas, this new twist on the classic holiday anthology offers cozy reads about ghosts attempting to navigate the cold and dark when the veil between the living and dead is thinnest.
Whether read alone by a fire or in front of a rapt audience, Shivers provides an opportunity to replace the relentless pings and buzzes of devices, at least temporarily, with the voices of lost souls lingering between the lap of ocean waves, the static of the radio, and the silence of falling snow.
As a magazine feature and essay writer, his pieces have appeared in print and online in Canadian Architect, C Magazine, Parachute, Border Crossings, The Georgia Straight, Vancouver Magazine, Flare, Fashion, Maclean’s, Nuvo, and Montecristo. He received a Gold Award for Best Short Feature from the National Magazine Awards for his essay “ELLE First: You Are Beautiful.”
He has also juried the Hubert Evans Nonfiction Prize at the BC Book Prizes, the Governor-General’s Literary Award for Nonfiction, and the Hilary Weston Writers’ Trust Prize. He lives in New Westminster, BC.
