The SWG is pleased to announce Meredith Hambrock as our Fall 2024 Virtual Writer-in-Residence for September 3 to November 30, 2024.
Meredith Hambrock has worked in writing rooms on over 100 episodes of TV Comedy. She most recently served as Executive Story Editor on the sitcom “Corner Gas Animated.” In 2022, her episode “A Lot to Be Desired” was nominated for a Leo Award. Her debut mystery novel, “OTHER PEOPLE’S SECRETS”, was published in September by Crooked Lane Books and was called “audacious” and “fabulous” by the New York Times Book Review and was nominated for a Lefty Award in the Best Debut Mystery Category. Her next novel, “SHE’S A LAMB!” will be published in April 2025 by ECW Press.
Hello Writers! My name is Meredith. I primarily write genre-adjacent fiction with a literary bent. Alongside my writing practice, I’ve worked as a writing instructor, mentor, and Writer in Residence. I have a very easy-going, supportive personality, and love to read and talk with writers about their work. I’m a real nerd for narrative structure, character-driven story-telling, and revision. In addition, I’m happy to talk about craft issues, careers, or anything else that might enhance your relationship to your writing practice. Can’t wait to see you on Zoom!
To learn more about Meredith and her writing, please watch her introductory video.
The Virtual Writer-in-Residence (VWiR) program provides opportunities for SWG members writing at all levels of development and in all genres to receive guidance and advice on a specific writing project from an established writer. Eligible members must live in Saskatchewan outside of Regina and Saskatoon – members in those cities can access their Public Library’s Writer-in-Residence programs. Members can submit up to 15 pages to the VWIR and meet one-on-one through Zoom up to three times to talk about the individual’s writing.
This service will open on September 3, 2024. To register, please fill out the form here.
