Welcome to the CAA Toronto Branch Blog

Welcome to the Canadian Authors Association Toronto Branch’s
blog. It is our hope that over time you will come to find a wealth of
information here as it grows and develops. It will primarily keep you informed
of our branch’s activities, but we also hope it will become a storehouse of tips, helpful hints and the keen insights of our contributors. In addition, we hope to provide timely information on writing activities in the GTA: launches, workshops, writing groups and circles. Contributions and comments from branch members and the general public will be
welcome, though they will be moderated.
