Happy New Year to all. If one of your resolutions is to take a writing course, I highly recommend the Alexandra Writers Centre Society.

I’ve been going there for the past fifteen years, first as a student and volunteer and later as an instructor.

The Centre offers a host of varied courses at a reasonable cost. Class sizes range from four to nine students. It’s a low pressure atmosphere where you learn a lot. This winter I will be teaching a 10 week course for beginning novelists called A Novel Idea and a weekend intensive on revising your manuscript called Getting the Words Right. As always, I look forward to meeting new writers and reading their work.

I hope to see some of you at the Alexandra Writers Centre. Best wishes for a fruitful year of writing.
