Danial Neil: While working for the City of Delta, he authored the motto, “Ours to Preserve by Hand and Heart” for the city’s coat of arms in 1988. Danial worked steadily at his craft. His short story “Grace” was published in the 2003 Federation of BC Writers anthology edited by Susan Musgrave. He went on to participate in the Write Stretch Program with the Federation of BC Writers teaching free verse poetry to school children. As well participant in Word on the Street Vancouver. He won the Poetry Prize at the Surrey International Writers' Conference four times, and went on to study Creative Writing at UBC. His first published novel was The Killing Jars in 2006, and then Flight of the Dragonfly in 2009, my June in 2014, and The Trees of Calan Gray in 2015. Dominion of Mercy in 2021 and The Sum of One Man's Pleasure in 2023. His prose has been called hauntingly beautiful and lyrical. His poetry and fiction articulate a close relationship with the land, its felt presence in his narrative and vision. His characters arrive like guests and leave an edible presence in a reader’s experience. Danial lives on Vancouver Island, British Columbia.
