b) In the blogosphere, a showcase for some of the talented works of group members, and a few pointers for other writers as we'll also be sharing some of the methods that work for us.
The facilitators are me, Rosemary Nissen-Wade, up-front and Pam Moore as back-up. We are both primarily performance poets, with some publication credits also for fiction and articles. We have both been librarians, trained as teachers of Adult Literacy, and taught creative writing to adults at various educational levels. All this we discovered after we met each other in 2006.
Pam is employed at the Neighbourhood Centre in a number of administrative and teaching capacities. She took six months off in the first half 0f 2007, to go to China teaching English as a Second Language. It's good to have her back!
I'm semi-retired and work from home as a writer, editor, Reiki Master and professional psychic. I also work in the latter capacity at local Sunday markets. I have some other blogs too, which are included in the links on this page.

The WordsFlow writers are at all different levels of experience and working in a number of genres. What they have in common is a talent for writing and a vocation for it. We all have our own goals for participating in the group, facilitators included. The ones we all share are the wish to meet with like-minded people and the urge to indulge our passion for writing. We try out different techniques, forms, styles, voices.... We get to do some writing (never enough!) each session and share our work if we want to. Privacy is respected, and we always find ourselves laughing a lot.
We do aim for print publication in due course; meanwhile Pam and I feel strongly that the work is too good to waste and so we'll be airing some of it here with the authors' permission. Let us know, please, if you enjoy it!
- Rosemary (Facilitator)
