Bill Brown is a writer, artist, explorer, and outdoor adventurer currently living in southern Ontario. Now retired, Bill was an executive for groundwater exploration companies and has published several technical papers. He began to write poetry decades ago, many for handmade cards he crafts to celebrate special occasions with his wife of 50 years. This year, as a student in Margo’s writing course, he began to write creative non-fiction. Bill draws inspiration from his recently completed memoirs and his love of nature. If you're looking for him, check the trails along the Grand River, or his pool, where he spends time underwater, usually with his granddaughter. Bill is often mistaken for an adult because of his age. His favourite colour is lilac.
