LitFest is Canada’s first and only nonfiction festival. For 11 days every October, stages throughout downtown Edmonton (and occasionally Old Strathcona) feature authors and their thought-provoking books. Panels, readings, performances, and workshops start conversations. At LitFest, books about real life come off the page. The 2019 LitFest will take place from October 17th - October 27th.

Join former AWCS Writer-in-Residence, poet and novelist Lauren Carter, for an intimate conversation about the writing life and her latest novel, This Has Nothing To Do With You.
