Ed Griffin teaches creative writing in prison. He believes that all the arts, including writing, should be encouraged in prison.  "As Aristotle said, ‘art releases unconscious tensions and purges the soul.’"

He is the founder of Western Canada’s largest writer’s conference, the Surrey Writers’ Conference.

Ed also teaches creative writing at the Newton Cultural Centre.
