George Opacic co-authored with Ron M. Craig, In a Cloud of Sails: Monte Cristo/Endeavour II, Canada's Forgotten Lady of the Sea (Rutherford $27.95), which follows the adventures of a square-rigged sailing ship built in North Vancouver in 1968.
Other books and book projects include his collection of short stories, plays and a poem, Quantum Events; a novel called The Antichrist of Stanley Park, which takes place in Nunavut and Vancouver; and The Giants of Cathedral Grove, about a clan of neanderthals who, unsuccessfully, tried to hide from the other humans in a remote part of the world.
Albert Quimby (Rutherford $32) is a spirited B.C.-based love story about a pair named Albert and Cloe who become Bert and Ernie. Cloe/Ernie is accused of murdering their boss (a sexual harasser) and let’s not overlook her digital-offspring Beasty; plus there’s a covid mutation from a mink farm in Michigan. It’s a wildly fanciful romp that leads us to Seattle, Haida Gwaii and Mayne Island.
While traveling on business during his career, George wrote numerous short stories and many filmscripts, including Shroomtown, Hellenic Digits, Hammurabi, L5, World HQ, Where There's Smoke, and Protocol Omega.
George founded the publishing company, Rutherford Press. Its first publications were Notes To Mother by Jeff Berry, and Flying With White Eagle by Ben Nuttall-Smith. Also available, Explore the Alaskan Coast and French Silk on Water, by Patrick Hill, along with further works by Ben Nuttall-Smith titled Crescent Beach Reflections, Mad God of the Toltecs, Discovered In A Scream, and Henry Hamster Esquire.
A past president of the Federation of BC Writers, he was awarded their prestigious Honorary Life Membership in 2016.
