Hi folks,

Attention Canadian fwiffers -- keep your eyes open on the Globe and Mail for the next few days. I was just interviewed by a reporter and a photographer took my picture for a story about the FWFR book.

For you non-Canadian fwiffers, the Globe and Mail is a national newspaper and kind of like the New York Times of Canada.
I know several people who work there and they passed along a copy of the book to the right editors in the arts department.
A good story in the Globe could give the book a real big boost.

I'm looking forward to seeing it in print hopefully soon.

-The best reviews usually involve puns and wordplay, or references to other films and pop culture, Onesi says. Take, for instance, this review of Edward Scissorhands: �Sheeeeears Johnny!� Or this cheeky review of Ghost: �Horny Potter.�

wow and such a big selling newspaper too if it's like the New York Times. Finally get some recognition.



It's the second-largest newspaper in Canada (in terms of circulation), behind only the Toronto Star. (And I was chatting with the Toronto Star film critic. Hopefully they'll do something once the Toronto Film Festival is over.

Nope, it's still there, but isn't one of the five most recent comments so is hidden unless you expand the comment section. And yep, that's me.

There was a comment on the article by AC1494 or some such number which suggested visiting the website, but it has since been taken down.

I assume AC was AussieCanuck.
