Congratulations! It’s a Book!

Six incredible individuals collaborated with Laureen Giulian to tease out a collection of short stories and poems that both entertain and inspire. The book is an interactive workbook which allows readers to participate in the Journey to Write YOUR Story program that was offered through Winter 2025 at the Kettle & Stony Point First Nations Public Library in southwestern Ontario.

Stories from the Heart On a Journey to Write YOUR Story was eagerly received by community members in a launch party held at the heart of the community – the library – on Wednesday February 4th, 2026. Twenty-five copies of the soft cover issue were distributed to members who attended the launch, in an effort to raise awareness of the importance of sharing our stories with respect and dignity and the need to preserve them for all time.

Soft cover books will be available for purchase online around mid-February. An e-book will follow in March.
