In 1993, Jack Livesley filled in for a missing creative writing teacher. It was the beginning of 13 years of weekly workshops for aspiring writers, who became known as the Jolly Lits. Twenty-six of these writers have collaborated to produce this book. The writing presented includes short stories and character sketches, humour, memoirs, essays and poetry.
