Opening the autumn line-up, StoryFest is delighted to welcome Nita Prose to the Hudson Village Theatre stage for a discussion of her page-turning, New York Times bestselling novel The Maid.
The Toronto Star says that the “gentle tone, compelling narrative and whip smart plotting have added up to a debut novel that seems to fall into the category of overnight success.” It has been called a “masterful, charming mystery that will touch your heart in ways you could never expect” by Ashley Audrain, the New York Times bestselling author of The Push. “This is the smart, quirky, uplifting read we need,” she added.
Nita definitely learned about her craft on the job. She has worked in all aspects of the publishing industry and is currently the vice president and editorial director at Simon & Schuster in Toronto, Canada. As mentioned, The Maid is her first novel.

StoryFest 2022: Debra Thompson - In Person
2022-10-11 19:30 - 21:00 | centre communautaire Stephen F. Shaar Community Centre, 394 rue Main, Hudson, Quebec, J0P 1H0, Canada
Hudson’s Community Centre will be where StoryFest will eagerly welcome esteemed scholar Debra Thompson. A McGill associate professor of Political Science, Dr. Thompson is a renowned scholar of the politics of race and holds a Canada Research Chair in Racial Inequality in Democratic Societies. Her earlier book, The Schematic State: Race, Transnationalism, and the Politics of the Census, received three major awards from the American Political Science Association. She has also published numerous articles in scholarly journals and is a regular commentator in print and on television on the state of race and racism in Canada and the United States. She now lives in Montreal.
In The Long Road Home, her just released book, Dr. Thompson follows the roots of Black identities in North America and the routes taken by those who have crisscrossed the world’s longest undefended border in search of freedom and belonging. It is a moving personal story and a vital examination of the nuances of racism in the United States and Canada. Above all, this book is about the power of freedom and the dreams that link and inspire Black people across borders from the perspective of one who has deep ties to, critiques of, and hope for both countries.
Tickets are $20.00 each and can be purchased electronically here and are available at Que de Bonnes Choses (484-D Main, Hudson) or at Centre Décor Hudson (521 Main, Hudson) as cash purchases only.

StoryFest 2022: Tarah Schwartz - In Person
2022-10-20 19:30 - 21:00 | Hudson Creative Hub créatif d’Hudson, 273 rue Main, Hudson, QC, J0P 1H0, Canada
StoryFest is proud to welcome a new Hudson resident who is a familiar face to many in the region. Tarah Schwartz spent more than 18 years as a CTV News Montreal reporter/anchor. She has won four Canadian journalism awards and been named a woman of influence by Na’amat Canada. She is currently the director of communications at Montreal’s MUHC Foundation where she works to raise awareness about the value of philanthropy. Born and raised in Montreal, she now lives in Hudson with her husband Enrico, their son Sam, and cat Milo.
Can’t Help Falling: A Long Road to Motherhood is Tarah’s personal and at times heart-wrenching story. When she miscarried for the first time at almost five months, it was devastating. She was determined to try again, but other miscarriages followed, threatening her stability and her relationships, and changing her profoundly. Tarah puts words to excruciating loss as she recounts her unexpected and deeply inspiring journey to finally enjoying motherhood. She will discuss her memoir at the Hudson Creative Hub, which was formerly St. Mary’s Church Hall.
Tickets are $20.00 each and can be purchased electronically here and are available at Que de Bonnes Choses (484-D Main, Hudson) or at Centre Décor Hudson (521 Main, Hudson) as cash purchases only.

StoryFest reacquaints with long-time friend/ally Linda Leith at the Hudson Creative Hub to learn more about her in a discussion about her compelling book, The Girl from Dream City: A Literary Life. She claims in the end is not a memoir, but more of an essay… “an attempt at approximating what really happened.”
James M. Fisher of the Miramichi Reader says, “…we are fortunate to have such a person as Linda Leith active in the Montreal and CanLit literary scene.” We at StoryFest are equally delighted to welcome her back to the Hudson Creative Hub, formerly St. Mary’s Church Hall.
Born in Northern Ireland, she attended schools in London, Basel, Belfast, Paris, and Montreal, graduating from the University of London, which granted her a PhD on the work of Samuel Beckett when she was twenty-four. A novelist, essayist, literary translator, and the founder of the Blue Metropolis International Literary Festival and of Linda Leith Publishing, she lives in Montreal.

StoryFest 2022: Writers' Workshop with David Heti
2022-11-05 10:00 - 16:30 | Greenwood Centre, 254 rue Main, Hudson, Quebec, J0P 1H0, Canada
PLEASE NOTE: AS OF NOVEMBER 2, THIS EVENT IS SOLD OUT!
No, Seriously! Comedy Writing.
You might laugh, but this five-hour immersion (with breaks) will be a combination of theory and workshopping. The goal is for the participants to deepen their appreciation of humour, learn how better to transfer their own sense of humour to the page, and in general become stronger, more confident, nuanced, discerning and just plain funnier writers no matter what their writing genre or level of experience.
Beginning with a survey of classic theories of humour examining the essence of the comedic, the workshop will then take a critical analysis of several exemplary comedic works across various literary forms. Time will then be spent on in-class writing (and re-writing) exercises, as well as a discussion of general comedy writing strategies and approaches. Students are encouraged to bring along any pieces of writing they are working on, but this is by no means essential.
David Heti is a stand-up comic and humour writer who has toured throughout North America, released two comedy albums, and written for the CBC and The Comedy Network. He teaches comedy writing at McGill and Toronto’s Flying Books School of Reading and Writing. He also holds degrees in Philosophy and Law.
The workshop takes place at Greenwood and includes a light lunch. Space is limited.
Tickets are $80.00 each and can be purchased electronically here. If you would like to buy this ticket as a cash transaction, please contact us at: history@greenwoodcentre.org or 450-458-5396.

StoryFest 2022: Iain Reid
2022-11-09 19:30 - 21:00 | Hudson Village Theatre, 28 Wharf, Hudson, Quebec, J0P 1H0, Canada
We round out our offering for the 2022 StoryFest season with Iain Reid, a novelist, memoirist and screenwriter from Ontario who won the RBC Taylor Emerging Writer Award in 2015. His latest novel, We Spread was released to great acclaim at the end of September. This novel has already become one of 2022’s top books by Indigo and a New York Times best-seller.
Iain Reid’s novels include the New York Times bestselling debut, I’m Thinking of Ending Things and Foe, which is being adapted for film, starring Saoirse Ronan; with Reid cowriting the screenplay. We Spread explores conformity, art, productivity, relationships, and what it means to grow old. “Reid combines magnetic character development with clipped, eerie prose in this masterfully crafted psychological thriller that will keep the reader guessing until the very last word on the final page.” — Booklist
Tickets are $20.00 each and can be purchased electronically here and are available at Que de Bonnes Choses (484-D Main, Hudson) or at Centre Décor Hudson (521 Main, Hudson).

StoryFest 2023: Eliza Reid - Monday May 8
2023-05-08 19:30 - 21:00 | centre communautaire Stephen F. Shaar Community Centre, 394 rue Main, Hudson, Quebec, J0P 1H0, Canada
Eliza Reid, the First Lady of Iceland, examines her adopted homeland’s attitude toward women—the deep-seated cultural sense of fairness, the influence of current and historical role models, and, crucially, the areas where Iceland still has room for improvement. Reid’s own experience as an immigrant from small-town Canada who never expected to become a first lady is expertly interwoven with interviews with dozens of sprakkar (“extraordinary women”) to form the backbone of an illuminating discussion of what it means to move through the world as a woman, and how the rules of society play more of a role in who we view as “equal” than we may understand. Secrets of the Sprakkar is a powerful and atmospheric portrait of a tiny country that could lead the way forward for us all.
Tickets are $20.00 each and can be purchased electronically here and are available at Que de Bonnes Choses (484-D Main, Hudson)
We wish to thank Alena Kirby, Centre Décore Hudson, Hudson Family Health Centre, Janet Ellerbeck, Embers, La Plantation, Maison Rose, Penny Petz and Town of Hudson for their partnership.

Children's Book Reading with Frank Hicks | Lecture d'un livre jeunesse avec Frank Hicks : Pugsley the Peculiar Puffin 📖
2023-08-19 10:30 - 11:30 | Greenwood Centre, 254 rue Main, Hudson, Quebec, J0P 1H0, Canada
For children of all ages, Frank Hicks reads his recently released book: Pugsley the Peculiar Puffin on the lawn at Greenwood. This children’s book is based on the true story of a wayward puffin from Newfoundland Canada that somehow landed in Montreal. It is also a story of the people who offered their help, the environmentalists who offered their expertise and the professionals who offered their time and resources, all working together to bring this puffin back home.
We’ll have copies of the book available to be signed by the author. All proceeds go to Le Nichoir Wild Bird Conservation Centre, also located in Hudson. Frank’s antique toy collection will complementarily be on display for any curious attendees.

Dans les jardins de Greenwood, Frank Hicks fera la lecture de son livre tout récemment publié, Pugsley the Peculiar Puffin. Cet ouvrage jeunesse se fonde sur l’histoire vraie d’un macareux moine de Terre-Neuve, qui s’est égaré par hasard à Montréal. Il relate l’action concertée des environnementalistes, professionnels et des autres bienfaiteurs qui ont travaillé d’arrache-pied pour ramener Pugsley chez lui.

Des copies du livre seront en vente sur place, et l’auteur les dédicacera sur demande. Les profits seront versés au Centre de conservation des oiseaux sauvages Le Nichoir, qui se situe également à Hudson. En complément, la collection de jouets antiques de Frank sera exposée pour tous les curieux.
