WORDS ON THE WORDS: WRITING ABOUT LANGUAGE

  • Queen's Park 110 Wellesley Street West Toronto, ON Canada (map)

Sometimes the difference between a good book and a great one isn’t the plot or characters, but the author’s turn of phrase. From neologisms (newly-coined words) to rhythm to the rich interplay between two languages on one page, there are many ways to shape language to create surprising and powerful effects. Join Margaret Nowaczyk, Irene Marques, Cassidy McFadzean, and moderator Stuart Ross as they discuss the imperfect and beautiful tool that is the written word.
