Keep an eye on this column for upcoming conference appearances or readings.

During 2020 most speaking events were cancelled. D.S. Martin's intensive poetry course for The Word Guild's Write Canada Conference was taught in August online. Rescheduled and newly scheduled events will be posted here as they are arranged. Please feel free to contact him, to book appearances.

In A Strange Land: Introducing Ten Kingdom Poets (Poiema/Cascade) is D.S. Martin's latest anthology from the Poiema Poetry Series.

In his role at McMaster Divinity College he often shares his poetry as part of chapel services. Due to social distancing restrictions, chapels are now virtual events. He recently shared a video presentation of one of his poems for the September 28th chapel.

The Poiema Poetry Series Reading at the Prince Center in Grand Rapids, Michigan (that was booked for the Friday of 2020's Festival of Faith & Writing) will be rescheduled for 2021. The new conference dates are April 8-10.

D.S. Martin will be the keynote speaker at the 2021 Fall Conference of the Inscribe Christian Writers' Fellowship, October 1 & 2, at the Providence Renewal Centre in Edmonton, Alberta.

D.S. Martin is available to present his poetry, guest in college classrooms, teach courses or present workshops. He has recently presented at the Windhover Writers Festival in Texas, and taught for Gordon College in Orvieto, Italy.
