Another Writing Project


Another Writing Project was launched on the heels of A Creative Way Out of Work as a forum for writer Valerie Poulin to publish newspaper column-sized, non-fiction articles on a weekly basis, from May 2011–May 2012.

Where A Creative Way Out of Work (February 2010–February 2011) allowed Valerie to post new and previously published poetry, fiction, and creative non-fiction pieces, Another Writing Project provided her with an outlet to produce original opinion articles and publish them with regularity.

Ms. Poulin snuck in a few longer pieces, too. You’ll find them listed under the essays, creative non-fiction, and personal essays categories.

The following articles from Another Writing Project have been published online and in print publications:

  • “Before the Red Ribbon” | NOWW contest co-winner; sponsored by NOWW and AIDS Thunder Bay
  • “Imaginary Friends: Resolving a Case of Copy Jitters” | WCDR’s Word Weaver
  • “One Good Sentence After Another” | CAA Ottawa’s Byline
  • “Teen Rising” | Mamazina
  • “Teenagers’ Actions Touch Everyone’s Lives” | Mother Ink
  • “What More Could We Have Done?” | Literary Thunder Bay

Other pieces that appear here are reprints. Please see Publication Credits for details.
