She lives in a multi-generational century-old farm house teeming with grandchildren, their parents, three cats, a rabbit and one dog, not to mention a busy bird feeder outside her office window—never a dull moment and fodder for many stories. She is a graduate of Creative Writing at Carleton University and Algonquin College. She is a published author of six books, Fourteen Cups (a collection of short stories), Wandering Backwards (a creative memoir), Snow Business, Trevor Tractor and Stuck On Me (children's), When Secrets Become Lies and While She Was Gone (novels).
