Brian d'Eon's Chapbook
This collection of writing is available for purchase for $7 at Booksmyth in Nelson, BC. Email me and for $9 I will mail a copy to you.
Sweet Melancholy will give you a taste of the range of my writing, both prose and poetry and, if you buy a copy, you will have the tactile satisfaction of holding the words in your hand. Plus you will enjoy exceptional karma for supporting a struggling writer.
Most of the pieces in the collection are quite new, written within the last year (2014-2015).
