Capital City Press
Capital City Press is a gathering place, both digitally and physically, for the exchange of ideas and education on the craft of writing. It gives EPL the opportunity to showcase and promote notable work from within our community, while also giving Edmontonians a chance to discover fantastic local writers and discuss their creations. Capital City Press aims to help support and grow writing in the community.
Thank you to everyone who submitted their work for the upcoming Capital City Press Anthology. We're reviewing all the entries and will be in touch early 2021.
Peter Midgley writes children’s books, plays, fiction and nonfiction, and poetry in English and Afrikaans. In addition to writing, he is also an award-winning freelance editor and storyteller. He is available for workshops and public talks.
Peter’s writing, as well as his public appearances, address issues of social justice, racsim, belonging in the diaspora, and living and working across languages and cultures. You can find out more about him on his website.
