Patrick Lane
                                                    March 26, 1939 - March 7, 2019

The world has lost a great writer. Writers, poets and others have lost a great mentor, friend, husband and in the end, family man. This is the space for all of these people to come and leave a tribute to the man, poet and novelist.

Please feel free to send a poem, of his, yours, or lines that make him live in your memory. Also send along stories of how you knew the man. You may leave a comment on a post, which may be made into a post by the admin people, DC Reid and Daniel Scott.

Alternatively you may send us an email that we will convert to a post. Feel free to follow this site, as the intention is to send along as many words about Patrick as we can. The purpose is to pass on memories so those who were near to him may remember him, and also learn how he influenced the lives and writing of many poets who surrounded him in his vast land of Canada.

"Patrick Lane has always walked the thin ice where truth and terror meet with a kind of savage intuition."

"Patrick Lane shouldn't just win the GG's award, he should be canonized."
