I'm an award-winning author, journalist, book reviewer, teacher and freelance writer-editor.
I grew up in cities in Canada, the United States and England. After studying History at Oxford University and Social Anthropology at the London School of Economics, training as a maps specialist at a London auction house and pursuing journalistic work from Belgium to the Philippines, I began writing fiction for adults and young adults. This led to an AHRC studentship to complete a PhD in Creative Writing, which produced my second adult novel (and a thesis on imagined spaces in the postwar gothic novel). My third YA novel will be published in September 2016. I now live in Toronto where I continue to write fiction, criticism, course outlines, commercial copy, grocery lists for my husband, lunch box notes for my young daughter, and the alphabet in kibble shapes for our cat. |
