Word on the Lake: A Festival for Readers and Writers

Shuswap Association of Writers

‘Word on the Lake’  is a festival for both readers and writers.  This is such a fun and dynamic festival.  I have attended twice before and have thouroughly enjoyed myself each time, learning new things, making connections, eating great food...  If you are in the interior of BC and are interested in books, I highly recommend that you check out this festival.

Sessions will include both skill development workshops and open forums with authors based on questions and answers in an intimate setting.  It is brought ot you by the Shuswap Association of Writers.

  1. This sounds amazing! If only I could get away the end of May. Is it held the same time every year?
