''Wilderness Tips'' is a collection of short stories by Margaret Atwood, published in 1991 by McClelland and Stewart. It was a finalist for the Governor General’s Award. Certain stories were previously published in ''The New Yorker'', ''Saturday Night'', ''Playboy'', ''Harper's'' and ''Vogue''. Several of the stories are fictionalized portrayals of Atwood's contemporaries in Canadian literature. The mysterious poet Selena in "Isis in Darkness" is based on Gwendolyn MacEwen, and the journalist Marcia in "Hack Wednesday" is based on June Callwood.〔Brian Busby, ''Character Parts: Who's Really Who in CanLit''.
