Montreal and area writers, join THE UNRULY WRITERS CLUB.
***A space to create our work, grounded in disability justice***
What to expect: Hands-on exercises, mutual support, the opportunity for sharing and feedback in a supportive setting. And -- dedicated time to write!
After a long dark solitary winter and tentative spring, four writers emerge gloriously at the onset of summer: Kama La Mackerel, Helen Chau Bradley, Eli Tareq El Bechelany-Lynch and Callum Angus are brimming with pent-up words to soothe and destroy you — in any case you’ll want to experience their effects.

Please join us for the hometown soft launch of Helen Chau Bradley's debut fiction: Personal Attention Roleplay
