Biff Mitchell's Blog: Writing Hurts Like Hell

Book Warning

Normally, you would expect books of short fiction and not-poems to be connected by similar themes boring you a hundred different ways through reams prose and not-poetry with the same message strangling every word and image with endless variations on the same theme.

Not this book.

This book will scatter your mind over a jagged bed theme avoidance like ice and fire.

And you’ll never be that same.

How To Get Your Copy

The Amazon Canada price on the print version of this book is atrocious. I suggest you get the ebook version and, if you don’t have a Kindle, then download the free Kindle reader to your phone or tablet. (Download the app here: https://tinyurl.com/yc86ksb8)

(BTW, the print version seems to have disappeared from Amazon Canada. You can order from other venues through the publisher at: https://books2read.com/u/3L2rWM)

Amazon .COM, Barnes & Noble, Apple and just about every other platform are much less a kick in the balls than Amazon.ca.

Art in the Time of COVID: My Story

For some it might a have been a single piece of work: a drawing or poem. For others maybe a series of works. Or maybe just a change in perspective. It would be interesting to hear some of these stories.

So I invite you to write, draw, paint, sculpt, perform, make music, photograph, video tape or just quietly express a moment about how COVID affected you as an artist or affected your art in a meaningful way. Click here for more details on this in my COVID story:
