Thank you to the Canadian Creative Writers and Writing Programs Association (CCWWP) for championing this project among our members and beyond. We are delighted to donate our royalties to this organization in Memory of Rishma Dunlop, who helped build a culture of creative writing pedagogy and research exchange in Canada. We are also grateful to all members of CCWWP and to Canadian writers everywhere for continuing to contribute to this exciting and vital field during a time in history when words and beauty and stories are perhaps more important than ever. Thank you as well to our international counterparts.
