Haliburton Writers Write

On the third Wednesday of the month, a group of men and women meet in the private dining area of a local restaurant in Haliburton to share their writing samples, receive feedback and be pushed out of their comfort zone. The newly-formed Haliburton Writers Write group aims to support local writers in the region and to have some fun along the way.

The group was the brainchild of the Haliburton Arts Council and Doug Tindal who saw a need for a support group of sorts for local writers. So far, the group is attracting a wide array of people who write for all sorts of reasons. Some have the goal of being published one day, while others write for themselves or to capture family stories while they're able to do so. No matter the reason, the Haliburton Writers Write group gathers each month to share ideas, pointers and hone their craft.

CanoeFM attended the second meeting of the group recently and was allowed the privilege of listening to the works of several writers there.
