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 combining 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..
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
