I’m totally stoked to be appearing at the International Festival of Authors in Toronto later this month (October). The festival runs from October 20-30 and I’m on two round tables:

In Graphic Detail
Saturday, October 23, 3:00pm
Since 2005, the IFOA has showcased the work of cartoonists, illustrators and graphic novelists. At this event, artists Charles Burns, Dylan Horrocks and Seth share their latest works and participate in a round table discussion moderated by the CBC’s Shelagh Rogers.

Fictional Truths – Ideas on Time, Memory and Place
Tuesday, October 26, 8:00pm
Myla Goldberg, Paul Harding, Dylan Horrocks, and Eshkol Nevo discuss the building blocks of novel writing at this round table discussion moderated by Siri Agrell.

The other event I’m especially excited about is Lynda Barry’s session on the festival’s closing day (Saturday 30 October, 5pm).

So if you’re in Toronto, come along!

As the poster says, I’ll be speaking at Librairie Drawn & Quarterly in Montréal later this month. I’ll be talking about my strange journey from the first edition of Hicksville to the new one, some of the comics I’ve done along the way, and the ones I’m drawing now. I hope to show some stuff that hasn’t been seen in public before.

I can’t wait to see the D&Q shop, and to catch up with some old friends. If you’re in town, come along and say hello!
