Welcome to Hamilton Mountain Writers’ Guild! The members of the Guild welcome and assist new and seasoned writers in the Hamilton, Ontario area. The Guild has evolved into a non-profit organization with approximately 60 local writers cared for by a Board of Directors, various sub-committees, and writing team leaders.
Hamilton Mountain Writers’ Guild is an inclusive, welcoming space for authors of all backgrounds, voices, perspectives, and experiences. We do not tolerate opinions that exclude based on ethnicity, gender, sexuality, and religion. Hamilton Mountain Writers’ Guild maintains a place of dignity, safety, and respect for all writers.

MJW is a Graphic Designer and Illustrator. His work with the authors of the children’s book “A Bedtime Prayer for Peace” won a Moonbeam Children’s Book Award. Inspired by that success, he started writing children’s stories as well as some scary ones. It’s strange to some but any parent can tell you they are two sides of the same coin.
