Kathryn Fowkes is the contact person for a group of local writers.
This a small group of local writers in Quesnel who are all interested in supporting individuals who would like to get started writing, or who have written something and don't know where to go from here. It is a group of like-minded individuals who are passionate about writing as a means of personal and creative expression. Several of the writers attend markets throughout the year in Quesnel and various other communities, attend writing conferences and workshops within BC, and are members of the BC Federation of Writers. The main goal of this group is to support writers, however possible. This may be in the form of a small writing community, meetings over coffee to discuss aspects of writing, or in the case of the Writers Day event, to host a day every year where the general public can stop by and have an informal conversation with a writer about some aspect of writing, and/or attend a small informal session on a specific writing topic. Our main goal is to reach out to aspiring writers and encourage individuals with a dream of writing to get the support and encouragement they need to give it a try.
