Ten years ago we went to Virginia Winters's book launch. Please enjoy this write-up of the event, and Dr. Winters's biography. Viola Whitney Pratt (1892-1984) was a Bobcaygeon cottager, writer, magazine editor and book reviewer. On May 23, 2013, we attended the launch of Dorothy L. Thompson's book, Threads from the Loom of Time. Please enjoy the write-up from this event, and our biography of Dorothy Lenore Thompson (1941-2020) We're 10 years old! www.kawarthalakeswriters.com started supporting local writers 10 years ago this week! Blanche Hales Squires (1892-1971) spent her childhood in Lindsay, graduated from Lindsay Collegiate, and was a local teacher before becoming a poet and newspaper correspondent.
