Chaudiere Books 6 Questions Interview - Heather Ferguson, advisor to Bywords.ca and former editor of the Bywords Monthly Magazine, “I also set up a little stapled magazine called Bywords, with help from Seymour Mayne of the University of Ottawa and his literature students. Seymour has had always had an interest in little magazines. Bywords ran successfully for 9 years, at which point it lost its city arts funding. To my astonishment, it was then taken over by Amanda Earl and her computer wizard husband, Charles Earl, in a completely different electronic online format. I consider the early Bywords to be my best achievement; Amanda and Charles revived a dead literary magazine because people kept asking for it. The rest is history, as we see.”
