I
was born and raised in Peterborough, Ontario, Canada and earned
my Bachelor of Arts (major Political Science) at The University of Western Ontario during the late 1980's when big hair and off-the-shoulder shirts were considered the height of fashion. Shortly after graduation, gripped by the
sudden realization that I had the political aspirations of a gnat, I decided to
utilize my natural organizational abilities in the "exciting, fast-paced" world
of Executive Assisting in Toronto.
After a decade of Assisting (translation: sending funny emails to friends
and family while I was meant to be filing) and armed with nothing but now unfashionably big-hair, a box of After Eight mints and an idea for a funny situation, I quit my job to write my first novel, It Would Be Funny If It Wasn't
My Life.
During the writing of It Would Be Funny, I had time on my hands and very little money so devoted my non-writing hours to getting fit in both body and mind. Resistance training, running, meditation and yoga all play roles in keeping me
fit and calm while I juggle finances and work on my second novel, With Her Boots On.
After many years of struggling to find my place in the world, I have succeeded.
I realize now that the destination and the journey are one in the same. |
