Six Nations Writers
The Six Nations Writers are the storytellers of today who will share their stories with all who enter this site. We all share a common literary goal to carry on our ancestral storytelling tradition through our written words. We keep our literary circle strong by sharing our stories and supporting each other. Our hope is to widen our circle through the moccasin telegraph and link with other First Nation literary communities to saturate the literary market with stories written by writers who happen to be native. We are a group of varied individualized writers from all walks of life. We are published and aspiring writers who all have strong voices and want our voices heard. We are poets, novelists, academic and technical writers. We are journalists, essayists, cartoonists and comedians. We are short story writers, playwrights and songwriters. We are the storytellers of today and we are varied as the nations and clans that are our heritage.
