Are you a writer in the Miramichi area who would like to read from your current book or project in public?

Reading aloud in front of other people offers a special sort of magic: you learn to present your writing to other people, which brings encouragement and feedback, and when you read in the presence of others, it helps bring your words alive.

Share five minutes from your current published work or work in progress, whether French or English, whether it's prose, poetry, or script.

Check out the event page on www.wfnb.ca and register, if you'd like to read. The afternoon is free, but freewill donations are cheerfully accepted.

If you don't want to read but would like to listen, you are welcome. Parking and seating is limited - first come, first served! Writers' Federation of New Brunswick

Please note, An Autumn Haunting at Wilson's Point Historic Site has been cancelled, for this year, due to the bridge closure.

It pains us to announce the cancelation of An Autumn Haunting- like no other. We put a lot of thought into this decision and it did not come easy.

With the current situation of the Anderson Bridge closure we felt it best to keep both the Character Matters crew and visitors safe. The detours can be tricky especially at night and even more so if you’re not used to navigating them.

We apologize for the inconvenience this may cause, and we hope you’ll return next year without any obstacles.

We’d like to thank Shawn McCathy of Character Matters for all of the time and effort he put in to develop a new and exciting tour and with a little luck and pixie dust we will see it to fruition next year.

Keep your fingers crossed that this closure ends sooner than later and thank you for your understanding.
