I am, in alphabetical order, an editor, a mother, a poet, a retired educational assistant, a widow, and a writer. I was born and raised in Saskatchewan, albeit in many different communities. I now live in Martensville, which is a small city just north of Saskatoon. I have been writing for over 30 years. I have published twelve books for kids and three nonfiction books for adults. I am a member of CANSCAIP, the Saskatchewan Writers Guild, TWUC, and an amazing writing group - the Children's Writers Round Robin. I love reading and learning new things. I am easy-going and have a good sense of humour.
Children's - I usually read two books, and in between them, show how books are made.
Adult (grief) - I share how the book(s) came about and usually read the preface, one letter, and the afterword.
Adult (adventure) - I share how the book came about (me deciding to take a year and do 60 things I'd never done before, to celebrate turning 60) and read a few of the adventures.
I usually read two books, or a book and a work-in-progress, and in between, I show how a book is made.
