Programme and Marketeer Coordinator Aisling Riordian enthusiastically elaborates: "Have you ever seen such a happy group of writers :-)? Well, the writers in the above picture--all from different cultures and backgrounds--have recently seen their work published, many for the first time, in Diaspora Dialogues' latest release, TOK5: Writing the New Toronto, an anthology containing new short stories and poetry from Toronto's talented up-and-coming writers.
