Welcome to the Women Writing podcast. In this episode, I’m having a chat with author, speaker, and writing coach, Patricia Westerhof. You can read Patricia’s previous Women Writing feature here and check out her book The Canadian Guide to Creative Writing and Publishing.

Patricia Westerhof is the award-winning author of The Canadian Guide to Creative Writing and Publishing, Catch Me When I Fall, and The Dove in Bathurst Station. She also co-authored The Writer’s Craft, a textbook on creative writing that’s been used widely across Canada. Her stories and articles have appeared in Room, The Feathertale Review, Write, West End Phoenix, and The Dalhousie Review. Her current project, a comic novel, was inspired by her recent experience of having been forced to write an index. Patricia, who holds an MA in Education and teaches creative writing classes at the University of Toronto’s School of Continuing Studies, is also a sought-after writing coach.
