Int. Sen Maclean's WIER Forum

[Pat Elliott <pat.elliott@sympatico.ca>]

> The Writers In Electronic Residence program and Maclean's magazine have
> launched a new program at the magazine's web site
> (http://www.macleans.ca).
>
> HOW IT WORKS
>
> Each month, a Canadian writer will serve in an "electronic residency" at
> the Maclean's web site.
>
> Each week, the writer will post a piece to initiate a discussion in the
> Maclean's "WIER Forum." These pieces will vary widely in content and
> focus, and may include, for example, short essays on writing-related
> topics, responses to current literary issues or events in Canada, calls
> for original writing and commentary, and so on.
>
> The writers will moderate and participate in these discussions.
>
> This initiative involves writers whose works are already well known to
> Canadians, as well as some of the newer voices currently emerging on
> Canada's literary scene. In the coming months, the project will welcome
> Richard van Camp, Ann Ireland, Leon Rooke, Andrew Pyper, Robert J. Sawyer,
> Howard Engel, Austin Clarke, Eden Robinson, Esta Spalding, and one or two
> surprises along the way.
>
> The program is open to all Canadians.
>
> The financial support of the Canada Council for the Arts (Writing and
> Publishing Section) and Canada's SchoolNet is gratefully acknowledged.
