About

Are you a writer living in Kawartha Lakes? Are you interested in the writers of Kawartha Lakes? This site is for you!

Until this site was created, no other directory of local writers existed. Finding local authors or other writers in the area consisted of “asking around.”

Created in March of 2013, this site is a labour of love for the purpose of celebrating and advocating for local authors and sharing news about local writing contests and opportunities for writers. Several writing contests run annually, but there are also workshops and retreats available in the area.

This site exists to promote the successes of local writers. The best way to support writing in our community is by purchasing authors’ works and by showing up at appearances and signings.

If you are an author, we would love to help spread the word about your work, new releases, launches, and appearances. Just send an email using our Contact page. If you’re not on the Directory, let us know. We’re happy to add you!
