Out of the Woods: Voices from the Forest City
An Anthology from London Writers Society

Nestled amidst the lush forests of London, Ontario and its surrounding communities, a vibrant tapestry of voices emerges from the trees. Out of the Woods brings together an extraordinary collection of stories and poems—each one a testament to the power of storytelling and the diverse perspectives of writers in the London Writers Society.

Curated by acclaimed author Emma Donoghue (Room, The Pull of the Stars, The Wonder, The Paris Express) and featuring a foreword by award-winning Canadian author Terry Fallis, this anthology offers a rare glimpse into the minds of 35 established and emerging authors. From historical dramas and contemporary slices of life to lyrical poetry and gripping speculative fiction, the works within Out of the Woods reflect the breadth and depth of our shared human experience.
