William Gough is...
....a Writer, Producer, Director & Mentor. He's won such awards as the Gemini, Actra, Prix Anik, Genie, Bijou, Blue Ribbon - American Film Festival, & the Columbus Film Festival’s ‘Chris Plaque.’ He also taught for decades in VIU's Creative Writing department. He taught by utilizing on-campus and also asynchronous, virtual approaches & really likes that VIU's writing program is called "CREW"
A Psychotherapist, Caren Moon (who co-created Pilot Hill Press and our Series) also works as a creator-writer of television & film, ranging from off-beat comedies to mysteries and dramas. Drawing on her Criminology background, she's combing forces with me for "Outport Murders"
We are all a Crew - we work together and learn from all workers-creators on every crew. This is the path to all my books & creations. I learned from all audio-crews, TV Crews, Film Crews, Stage Crews, and audiences. I was trained by my co-workers. And life, and by the stories the old-ones told me when I was a little boy. I'm still writing and completing working with a dendrite-narrative style of allowing stories to tell themselves. And it's always a group-creation. Like everything else. No one writes alone..
In the closing Novel of the renamed series "The Terra Nova Quintet" in 2025, we'll be wrapping all the other novels. It will be released on August 24, of that year.
As you've just seen, Gull Pond Books continues to evolve; stories imply our trades. We are conceived inside a matrix of words & ideas & all perception. Next step for this press is our Multi-Book project.
Get ready for something so old that it's new again.
Time for us all to tell our stories - now.
"Gough’s writing is...poignant, spare, with the strength and subtlety of a fine woodcut..." E. Annie Proulx
