Excellent Book News from Vancouver, Canada

So glad for my friend, Grant Lawrence–host on CBC Radio 3, who last year published the Canadian bestseller Adventures in Solitude, winner of the BC Book Prize–signing a deal with Vancouver publisher Douglas & McIntyre for his next two books.

The first book will be a rock ‘n roll travelogue of “Grant’s life through the gritty indie music world with his underdog band The Smugglers.” It will publish in 2013.

Grant Lawrence's 2010 'Adventures in Solitude.'

The second book will cover “Grant’s lifelong tenuous relationship with hockey and his view from between the pipes as an amateur, gimpy, championship-winning goaltender, which will publish in fall 2014.”

Way to go for Grant Lawrence and all my friends at Douglas & McIntyre.
