Thanks to Laurie Callsen at Metro Edmonton for her article about Jason and the 40 Below Project. Here are some highlights:

Norman hopes to collect at least 40 pieces to showcase the best things about living in a winter city and self-publish the anthology in November 2013.
“Winter, it’s no surprise. I think a lot of people who do complain would like something else to do other than complain. The city is working hard on solving a lot of those problems [through the Winter Strategy] and the project is something that I can do. I can get writers together, I can get artists together and create a gift for the city, a love letter to the city,” he said.
