Writing & Publishing

Every wednesday evening at 8pm, located at 3 Home st. (use the back door!!)

The Guelph writing & publishing class will exist for the purpose of connecting people who share an interest in exploring their own powers of linguistic artistic expressitosis. We will exchange, examine, and critique each others work for the purpose challenging each other's growth as writers, artists and visionaries.

The secondary focus will be to create different resources and share information in the realm of publishing and producing both independently and through larger writing organizations. As the classes continue we will work towards producing a zine, either collectively or on our own, as determined by the participants of the class.

The class times and location TBA.
