On December 6 1989, a tragic event occurred in Montreal--14 women were killed in a rampage by an armed man. Sadly, the name of this attacker is often published front and centre in news stories while the names of 14 women, the victims of his wrath are left untold.

This year, I designed a small book to commemorate the women. It is posted on my blog at http://pmpoetwriter.blogspot.com/.
