ONTARIO ARTS COUNCIL | CONSEIL DES ARTS DE L'ONTARIO
When it first launched, the Ontario Arts Council (OAC) podcast channel offered a new way to share information about OAC granting programs. Now it also provides a vehicle for sharing stories from OAC-funded artists, educators, arts administrators and community leaders about their work. These stories may inspire others, demonstrate the impact of the work or simply provide clear examples of how work can be supported. OAC was established in 1963 with a mandate to foster the creation and production of art for the benefit of all Ontarians. OAC is an arm’s-length agency of Ontario’s Ministry of Tourism, Culture and Sport. For more information about OAC, visit the website at www.arts.on.ca ----- Lors de son lancement, la chaîne de balados du Conseil des arts de l’Ontario (CAO) représentait une nouvelle façon de partager l'information sur les programmes de subventions du CAO. Maintenant elle permet aussi aux artistes, éducateurs, administrateurs des arts et dirigeants communautaires subventionnés par le CAO de parler de leur travail. Leurs réflexions peuvent inspirer d'autres personnes, démontrer l'impact du travail accompli ou encore illustrer clairement la façon de soutenir le travail. Créé en 1963, le CAO a pour mission de favoriser la création et la production artistique au profit de tous les Ontariens. Le CAO est un organisme indépendant du ministère du Tourisme, de la Culture et du Sport. Pour de plus amples renseignements sur le CAO, visitez le site www.arts.on.ca.

QUICK SILVER
What does a reformed cat burglar do when he has only months left to live? Sylvester “Silver” Larcini decides to test his skills one last time and pulls off the caper of his life by robbing the mansion of the mysterious Sherman Lord. Unfortunately, Lord has access to powers and resources far beyond anything Silver ever imagined. He kidnaps Silver’s wife and unleashes a worldwide manhunt against him. On the run, Silver encounters Morrigaine, a confused and eccentric young woman who claims to be a sorceress. She promises to help Silver rescue his wife if he helps her complete her murdered father’s quest to restore magic to the world. Despite his skepticism that magic exists, and despite her doubts that high technology isn’t some form of magic, they form an unlikely partnership...and soon learn how much they need each other’s unique talents in order to face the technological and supernatural forces Lord arrays against them. Hugo, Nebula and LOCUS Award-winning author David Brin critiqued Quick Silver during its development, and declared the author has a real talent for writing and that the novel “shows real promise!” See Jane Doe’s review of Quick Silver at http://authorjanedoe.wordpress.com/2012/06/29/up-coming-author-review-quick-silver/ UPDATE: As of 9/13/2013, the original version of the novel has been replaced with a revised story and a completely new narration recorded with higher quality equipment.
