"Many people ask me how to get a novel published in Canada. With the
fall publishing season coming up, and a lot of new books and authors
about to be released, it’s time to reveal some tips.

remember that it is always 1955 in Canlit. That is not to say that every
prizewinning novel must be set exactly in that year, but that it helps
to imagine that you are writing in that year. Imagine that you are
writing by hand or at the very least on a manual typewriter (even if you
are writing on a cellphone and playing Call of Duty and checking your ex-lover’s hacked Facebook messages and the updates from Comic-Con every 30 seconds). . . ."
The whole amusing read
