THANK YOU BRIDGEWATER, VIRGINIA AND VANCOUVER

May 27, 2019 – After two weeks of readings, an interview, inspiring dialogue and community building in both Virginia and Vancouver, Shirley is indebted and incredibly grateful. Thank you to Stan Galloway and Nicole Yurcaba for inviting Shirley to the Bridgewater International Poetry Festival, Paul Nelson and Leanne Dunic for their thought-provoking questions, Tania De Rozario for sharing her work, Patricia Massy for offering space at Massy Books and the many writers and poetry enthusiasts who have shared their stories and words of support along the way.
