Cloud Lake Literary, headquartered in Thunder Bay, ON, is pleased to announce the launch of its inaugural volume on September 11, 2020. This digital publication proudly published eleven writers and four artists, including Thunder Bay, ON\u2019s J. E.

In the first issue, readers can expect to experience visits to the dentist (and the lengths we\u2019ll go to avoid it), cycling through Montreal, the journey of a red ball, the adventures that come from raising a wild bear, the thrill of aging, and even something for fandom lovers. Meanwhile, its poetry reflects on music, on darkness, and on the light in the woods. While our artists show us landscapes and portraits that will capture you.<\/p>\n

Submissions are already being received for Volume Two, which closes on December 31st<\/sup>, 2020 with publication in March 2021.

Editors are gearing up for Volume Two and we can\u2019t wait to read and see the stories, poetry, and art you have to share,\u201d says Wylie.<\/p>\n
