WARM has been taking a nap since summer 2008, but should be stirring again come spring 2009. Check back here for details after the New Year. We wish everyone WARM regards for the winter holiday season.
ABOUT OUR GROUP:
WARM is an independent interest group for writers, would-be writers, and anyone curious about writing. We meet regularly in downtown Montreal, Canada.
Guest speakers offer a wide range of topics related to the craft, and all present share "writing lore" in a friendly atmosphere.
As well, WARM sometimes hosts creative writing workshops, panel discussions, or even the odd field trip.
Major fiction and nonfiction writing genres are represented; mystery to memoir, poetry or prose.
Occasionally, we will delve into other forms of creative expression, featuring speakers who may be, for example, visual artists or musicians.
Started in 1983, WARM continues to serve as a source of inspiration and amity. Our aim is to be educative and enjoyable.
Jeanette Paul, who speaks, leads writing workshops, and freelances feature articles, heads the executive as president.
Alex MacLeod, a former college professor and author of "The Splendor of the Goddess," serves as vice-president.

Dear Members & Friends,
On August 31st, 2007, an executive decision was taken reducing WARM membership to a $10 per year stipend. The guest don for nonmembers remains $5 per meeting.
Formal meetings were then slated for alternate months, and the newsletter WarmTimes ceased to be a regular offering.
Our most recent get-together was a successful members-only BOOK ROMP SOCIAL on Saturday, April 19th, 2008.
Looking forward to meeting again in the springtime!
Warm regards,
Jeanette Paul, Pres
