I’ve been a voracious reader from the moment my parents gave me the best gift ever – a library card! And when I was a teenager, my grandfather handed me a gold signet ring that belonged to his grandmother, thus sparking my passion for family history.
For close to fifteen years I wrote a column called Living Country in an English language newspaper north of Montreal, called Main Street, where I shared everyday stories about raising my three sons with my hubby in a log cabin on a lake. I also wrote articles about genealogy and how people could start building their own family trees.
Since then, I’ve written in various genres, mostly for fun, but have found my niche – genealogy mysteries. Publishing later in life has been amazing, as I’ve had to learn new tech skills, and research new genealogy resources to share in my stories. The journey has been half the fun.
I hope you join me at Instagram or on my Facebook author page where I’ll share some ways you can start writing your own personal histories (or if you want to get fancy, your memoir!). I believe everyone should leave an account of their own lives, in their own words, and share with whoever you wish – or burn it, choice is yours!
And don’t forget to sign up to my email newsletter where I’ll share news about upcoming books, and some surprises! Hope to see you there.
