Next Author Talk will feature Sudbury author Jeremy John

On November 1, 2021 at 7:00 pm EST, Jes will be interviewing Jeremy John, author of Robert’s Hill (or The Time I Pooped My Snowsuit) and Other Christmas Stories (Dundurn Press, Nov. 2021). This is a FREE virtual event hosted by WritingCommunity.ca.

Jeremy John is currently ranked as the sixty-second most famous person from Brantford, Ontario. (Look it up. There are a lot.) Jeremy’s career in broadcasting has included co-hosting shows on 680 NEWS, KiSS FM, and Breakfast Television. Jeremy lives in Sudbury, Ontario.

Robert’s Hill (or The Time I Pooped My Snowsuit) and Other Christmas Stories is the perfect collection for Christmas in the real world. No talking snowman or cute woodland animal who saves Christmas (actually, there is a pigeon who steps in and saves the big day). This selection of heart-warming tales is about the true magic of the season: receiving the ultimate gift only to break it immediately; playing drinking games while watching a holiday special; getting divorced over what seemed like the perfect present. Robert’s Hill even settles the debate on which is the greatest Christmas movie ever made (that’s not it) and finally explains how the candy cane was invented (no one really knows, so why not make it up?). This collection will be enjoyed by everyone or, at least, anyone who still loves Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood, misses the toys they had as a kid, and thinks pooping your snowsuit is funny.
