We’re gearing up for the She’s Shameless launch party, but we need your help!
As part of the event, five teen writers will spend the afternoon in a focused workshop with acclaimed author and teacher Ibi Kaslik, working together on short creative pieces. That evening, they’ll take the stage and read their work, alongside some of the book’s contributors including Dianah Smith, Zoe Whittall and Shannon Gerrard.
We strongly encourage youth from all communities to apply, including women of colour, First Nations women, women with disabilities, and transgendered and queer-identified youth.
The event will take place on Tuesday, June 23 at the Gladstone.
If you’re a teen writer and you’d like to participate (or know someone who you’d like to recommend), I’d love to hear from you! Send me an e-mail at megan@shamelessmag.com.

Our comment policy
Shameless prides itself on the diversity of opinions expressed by our writers, and we encourage and appreciate different points of view. Our intention at Shameless is to foster community and to maintain a safe and positive blogging environment; we do not consider it our duty to give a voice to anybody with an opinion.
Discussion on this site is moderated. We will delete comments that:
(We get to decide what's discriminatory, hateful, attacking, or inflammatory).
In some cases, we will cap off comments on a discussion when we feel they are spiralling out of control and fostering an unwelcoming space for bloggers and readers. Comments will be closed by the Web Editor, unless the post is by the Web Editor, in which case the Editor in Chief will close them.
If your comments repeatedly make the same point, they may be deleted. This also applies to comments made by multiple members of the same organization.
Your comments should be about the topic of the post, not its writer—although we certainly encourage praise for our writers, if you want to say something nice.
