Don Dietrich is a mostly-retired educator who writes science fiction, curriculum, and the occasional rant. Once in a while, without warning, poetry and song lyrics seem to happen to him. Don is originally from Southern Ontario. He arrived in Regina in 2001, via Nunavut, after meeting a girl from Saskatchewan. Don has a website at https://dcdietrich.ca 

RaeAnne M. Ellert, formally of Melville, now living in Regina, is currently writing her first book, RaeAmblings - A Story About Disability & Other Stuff. RaeAnne was born with a rare genetic mutation. As a result, she's experienced what it's like to navigate this crazy world that isn't built for people like her. She is writing her memoir to share those experiences in hopes of making some change, even if it's just making someone like her feel less alone. Her passions are writing, music, and cats.

Ryan Coulter was born in Watrous, SK, has lived in Shaunavon and Saskatoon, and currently resides in Regina – but dreams of living in New Orleans. Pal-Oh-Mine-Oh is his second unpublished novel and is already dreaming up his third The Second-hand Detective. He also works on short stories and dabbles in non-fiction and true crime.

P.L.Brunsdon: Retired + Introvert + Covid – Travel = Write

David Bellerive is a writer and marketer living in Regina with his wife, Blanche, three dogs and two cats. David spent his formative years writing advertising copy and is now struggling to move beyond 5-word headlines into 80,000-word stories. He has never had anything published—yet. He would like to be a serious writer, but silliness and sarcasm keep slipping onto the pages. Like his favourite fruit, oranges, he can be sweet and sour.

Writer in Residence Pam Bustin will join in the fun with a piece from her newest novel that pays homage to her favourite group of humans – LIBRARIANS!
