Eden Mills Writers' Festival

The Eden Mills Writers' Festival is a festival that is organized once a year and held in the village of Eden Mills. Eden Mills is approximately 12 KM East of Guelph, Ontario, Canada and is a small village. The festival includes readings by poets, authors, and other writers at various outdoor venues throughout the village. The festival occurs on the second Sunday after Labour Day in September. In previous years more than 40 Canadian authors appeared to give readings and interact with audiences,〔http://www.edenmillswritersfestival.ca〕 including notable Canadian writers like Margaret Atwood and P. K. Page. On September 15, 2013, the Festival celebrated its 25th anniversary.
The festival has outdoor readings by professional writers and provides opportunities for young and unpublished writers to present their work in a juried reading session called "the Fringe." There are also two literary contests: the Ishar Singh Poetry Contest and the Festival Literary Contest for new writers over the age of 16. The festival also includes a book vendors' bazaar (Publisher's Way), an aboriginal event, a children's site, and musical events. Eden Mills is located on the Eramosa River and the festival's principal readings take place on its banks.
==History==

In 1989 the Eden Mills Writers’ Festival began with a local resident, writer and Governor General's Award winner, Leon Rooke. Since 1989, the festival has occurred annually though expanding.
The festival actually began in the original General Store, which was built in 1877.〔 The owners of the general store at the time, Don and Mark Holman, suggested to Leon Rooke (who, at this time, was living with his wife Constance across the street) to launch his latest novel ''A Good Baby'', from just outside the store. Leon invited other writers to this event, such as Rohinton Mistry, Michael Ondaatje, Jane Urquhart and Linda Spalding. A small audience of 350 people emerged and the Eden Mills Writers’ Festival had begun.〔http://edenmillswritersfestival.ca/EMWF/about-us〕
