Welcome. You’ve reached the website of Newfoundland poet, critic, and all around stand-up guy, Mark Callanan. I used to maintain a proper website, but blogging software is so much easier to manipulate and I was never great at writing code to begin with. Anyway, here you’ll find poems, book promos, and little else.
