Canadian Creative Writers & Writing Programs

CCWWP or Canadian Creative Writers and Writing Programs is an initiative created by members of the English and Drama departments at the University of Calgary and York University, and The Banff Centre's Literary Arts program. The purpose of this initiative is to create a forum for discussion on issues relating to creative writing teachers: pedagogy, working conditions, employment opportunities, social issues teaching in communities, etc. This website will be instrumental to this purpose so you may wish to put it on your favourite’s list and visit it often.
