Member Review
I write my TWUC membership dues every year when I get my PLR cheque, which we only have because of the advocacy of this organization. I wouldn't want to think of the kind of literary landscape we would be inhabiting without it, and can only wishfully imagine the good work that could be accomplished if every Canadian writer became a part of it.

Orysia Dawydiak
Orysia is the firstborn child of Ukrainian immigrants. She learned to speak English (and several other languages for a short time) while playing with the children of other European immigrants in Sudbury, Ontario. She began her first novel about horses at age nine but ended up publishing a different one in 2009. Orysia graduated from the University of Western Ontario with a degree in Zoology, and from Kansas State University in Agricultural Sciences. She has been a sheep farmer and breeder of Akbash Dogs who guard sheep. She currently resides on a Prince Edward Island farm with one niece, one Akbash Dog and one three-legged cat.
