English Writing from the Heart of French Canada - SUBMISSION CALL for 2008 literary titles by English-language Quebec authors -- The Quebec Writers’ Federation (QWF) and Association of English-language Publishers of Quebec (AELAQ), with the participation of the English-language Arts Network (ELAN),
will be kicking off a national campaign in 2008 to promote Quebec minority language writers.
We are looking for a mix of young and established authors with books coming out next year to reflect the remarkable literary work being created in English-language Quebec. Our promotional efforts will focus on an attempt to increase coverage at Canadian literary festivals and in the national media and to offer publishers additional support. A special jury will select a representative mix of books most suitable for this project. Please note that self-published titles are not eligible. If you are a Quebec author with an English-language book of poetry, fiction or literary non-fiction coming out in the Spring or Fall of 2008 – or the publisher of such a book by a Quebec author – email us the following info:
Author
Title
One-line description of the book
Publication date
Publisher
Publisher contact info. (publicist’s email and telephone)
Please send to: Maria Francesca LoDico francescaqwf@videotron.ca
DEADLINE: Monday, January 14, 2008
TV - Nielsen offers protection to copyright holders -- Nielsen is expected to introduce a digital watermarking service to protect copyrighted video content from being pirated online. While other companies have ventured into video copyright protection, Nielsen has a leg up on potential rivals because it is responsible for encoding almost all network TV programs as part of its ratings service.
