My new poetry book, "Hawking the Surf" is close to release date. I'll post more when I have books in hand. Message me if you would like a signed copy. ISBN: 9781774033890 Silver Bow Publishing, Vancouver
The 2025 winner of the Raven Chapbooks Contest - Jacqueline Bell, will launch her book "Summoning" here on Salt Spring, October 2nd, 7pm at the Salt Spring Island Public Library. Come out to join our celebration!
I’m always nervous and excited at the same time when the first book review comes out. Today I received the link from The BC Review with Trish Bowering's, 'A Deep Sense of Returning', reviewing my novella, “Looking for Cornelius”. thebcreview.ca/2025/09/19/266…
I received letters recently from Angela and George McWhirter after they read my newly published novella, “Looking for Cornelius.” I thought the book might conjure a memory or two from their own Irish heritage. With their permission, I share my blogpost: dianahayes.ca/blog/
BC BookWorld's Autumn 2025 edition has just come out. I'm excited to see coverage for my novella, "Looking for Cornelius" which was just released by Wipf&Stock/Resource Publications and is now available for order. [dianahayes.ca/books/looking-…]
The print proof arrived today! - Rebecca Hendry's beautiful collection of poems, "The Lightning Tree" will be available at the end of July and orders can now be placed on our website: ravenchapbooks.ca/the-lightning-…
The cover! This is earlier than expected. Originally scheduled for spring 2026, the publisher moved it now for a fall 2025 release. Many thanks to Patrick Taylor, Theresa Kishkan, Celia Meade, Bill Gaston, Bill Gough and Rebecca Hendry for writing such insightful endorsements!
We've gone to press with our next Indigo Series poetry chapbook, Rebecca Hendry's "The Lightning Tree"! We will post more information next month when the book is available. Orders can be placed in advance via the RavenChapbooks[dot]ca website contact form.
We are going to print! Send us a message to pre-order Jacqueline Bell's award winning chapbook, the 2025 Raven Chapbooks contest winner. Visit the website: RavenChapbooks.ca
Create post RAVEN Chapbooks We are getting close to press time for Jacqueline Bell's "Summoning", winner of the 2025 Raven Chapbooks poetry contest. Here's a peek at the cover with art by Jacqueline's sister, Judy Critchley. Book design by Sarah Clark of sarahclarkdesign. 📷
The Galway Review accepted a chapter from my novella. It seems fitting since most of the story is set in Ireland. This chapter is from the third section when my characters, Deirdre and Éamon, attend a wake in Skibbereen.
Happy to join the Pinhole Poetry poets included in the January 2025 issue. Here is a link to the interviews: pinholepoetry.ca/poet-pinhole-p… That's the snowy owl in my poem "Winter Solstice at Barrow—Utqiaġvik."

What could be better than an entire issue of Aqua (Sept/Oct 2024) devoted to books! Thank you Gail Sjuberg, editor of Aqua and Gulf Islands Driftwood for creating this great read, and thank you for telling my story and how RAVEN Chapbooks got started!

So happy for MARLENE GRAND MAITRE that her Raven Chapbooks poetry book, WILD KIN, was a finalist for the SCWES Poetry Award! Although they don't have a category for poetry chapbooks, they were so impressed with Marlene's poetry that they included her as honourable mention.
