I'm available for writing, editing, and literary workshopping.
I've pulled $100,000+ in grants from arts-council funding bodies, published half a dozen books (poetry and non-fiction), and written for the stage and screen.
Here are some testimonials from writers I've worked with in the past:
"Kevin Heslop is detail-oriented and thorough, yes; he's appropriately gentle with his criticisms, yes; he's attuned to the rhythm of the sentence, yes—he’s everything one should expect a professional writer, reader, and editor to be. But he also senses intuitively where your work is going and provides suggestions that feel like they came straight out of your own head.” - Erica McKeen, novelist
“I came away from the day prepared to see my novel through.” - Frank Moore, novelist
“He has a keen sense for finding the kernel in the poem (even in draft form) and for helping the author develop that kernel into a compelling, polished, and formally interesting poem. That skill, plus Kevin's calm and inviting charisma, make him an ideal workshop leader.” - David Janzen, philosopher/poet/professor
"Kevin taught me a great deal about writing - not only of the craft itself, but of its history and discourse, of the poet's mind. I learned specific techniques (and their rationale), I developed a better and broader understanding of how language can be used, and I gained exposure and experience in how to read and respond to other poets' work.” - Shannon Arntfield, poet
"Working with Kevin has undoubtably made me a better writer.” - Jack Copland, actor/screenwriter
"Kevin Heslop's one-on-one poetic mentorship has been invaluable in my poetic process." - Linda Lucas, first-time author
"The possibilities he sees in my work open up space for me to play in, and my writing becomes both more precise and more expansive in response to his unwaveringly detailed, sensitive, and thoughtful feedback.” - Shelly Harder, poet/academic
At your service!

A proven method of interupting the neurological/energetic patterns that keeps us stuck sometimes mentally, emotionally, physically.
It is simple to learn and utilises the Chinese meridians to achieve this.

I'm a keen pickle-baller at the Kerikeri Tennis Club. We're a friendly bunch and you can learn as you go or take lessons, but if you'd prefer to get a head start privately with no pressure, I'm happy teach you. I can get you familiar with the rules - the kitchen, dinking, etc - yes, its a quirky game but so much fun!
Pickle ball is for all ages - from kids to older people. It has an easy entry point and anyone can play, even on their first day. Plenty of scope for advanced play and competitions too, if that's your thing.

Looking for a Walking Trail Buddy who enjoys walking in the woods enjoying nature and the outdoors. I have 194 acres here near Rollingdam that has a series of trails and trees and wildlife. Would offer to share with anyone my property whether it is a walk it the bush or snowshoeing in the winter.
Being that I am no in my 70s my wife is concerned with me going out in the wood hiking , She use to come with me and helped me with my trail work, but due to her health she can no longer can help and wants me to stay closer to home. She would be more comfortable having me have someone with me when I am in the woods
Do you want to get out and see nature and get fresh air. Being outside enjoying fresh air is good for your health
