MWG has members from the Orillia and north Simcoe area.  The Mariposa Writers’ Group (MWG) was formed in the mid 1990s by people who wanted to write, share skills and information and have an opportunity to hear their works read.  The first meeting was held at the home of Marilyn Rumball.  Of course, becoming published was everyone’s goal.  This goal was realized in 2010 when the MWG anthology,  “Our Literary Lapses” was released.  This anthology contains fifty pieces of poetry and prose contributed by seventeen members of the MWG. A Canvas of Words is the second anthology by the group.
