CAST LIST:

Paula Eisenstein grew up in London Ontario. Every few summers Paula=E2=80=
=99s parents migrated the family to Gaspe Quebec for a few weeks, where her=
 mother=E2=80=99s family was from, and where luckily the ocean got enough i=
nto her.  She was a champion swimmer and had curly hair. Paula still has cu=
rly hair and she still swims. She swims at the Toronto YMCA for an hour, a =
couple of times a week. Paula=E2=80=99s greatest feat was writing her first=
 novel Flip Turn which was published this past November by Mansfield Press.=
 Paula also had writing published in some other publications like Descant a=
nd The White Collar Book Anthology. She contributed as an editor to Influen=
cysalon.ca. Now Paula lives in Toronto. Paula never had work published in R=
oom Magazine but she keeps trying.


Jeff Latosik=E2=80=99s work has appeared in journals and magazines across t=
he country. He is the winner of the 2008 P.K. Page Award, This Magazine=E2=
=80=99s Great Literary Hunt (2009), and the 2011 Trillium Award for Poetry.=
 He lives in Toronto where he teaches at Humber College. His new project =
=E2=80=9CSackbut=E2=80=9D(an electronic synthesizer created by Ontario inve=
ntor Hugh LeCaine in the 1940s) looks at those moments of innovation in our=
 personal and social lives where the possible reorients itself in our view =
and where we gain a vantage point both on the systemic pressures that work =
on us and the way in which those pressures, and our language, might be rene=
wed.


James Lindsay is co owner of Pleasence Records. His poetry has appeared in =
Taddle Creek, Prairie Fire, and the Rogue Stimulus anthology (Mansfield Pre=
ss). He is also a music writer and regular contributor to Weird Canada and =
Offerings, Toronto free music monthly.
