Denny’s

Ottawa, ON

Monday Feb. 23 at 6 pm at Dennys in South key Plaza (reachable by OC Transpo).

As well as our customary attempt to set the world straight, we can discuss movies and any good SFF books folks might be interested in. Also as a possible topic, a book based on a activist internet hackers such as Anonymous’s current campaign against Cyberjihad and the potential for any collective to attack its enemies via the Internet.

It is a good idea to join our Meetup site, as it can be used to automatically email the members, without exposing those addresses to anyone. You’ll also get automatic reminders of events.

If you’d rather not use Meetup.com, please email events@ottawasfs.ca to let us know you’ll be coming, so we’ll have a number to give the restaurant.

Dear Friends,The purpose of this message is to invite you to a meeting to establish an organizing committee for Prose in the Park (PiP), a new initiative for a major open-air literary festival/book fair in Ottawa in 2015.

Here is, however, a summary of the project initiative.The proposed PiP venue is the Parkdale Park in Hintonburg (between Parkdale and Hamilton streets and just north of Wellington Street West). PiP will be a tented literary festival/book fair with the main authors events taking place on the covered stage in the park. The date of PiP is yet to be determined but notionally it would be on one Saturday from late Spring to the end of Summer 2015. We hope to attract 2000 book lovers, 60-70 local authors; 10-15 out-of-NCR authors (e.g., from Montreal, Toronto, Kingston, and Perth); 10-18 publishers. The Ottawa public library, NCR-based bookstores, literary online and print magazines, literary festivals, reading series and national/provincial writers organizations with members in the NCR would also be invited.
