    A WRITER'S LIFE 📚 Michelle Barker.

    So much fun with Michelle Barker! We spoke about her life as a writer, and she has an incredible amount of insight about writing and editing. I loved reading her latest novel My Long List of Impossible Things  published by  Annick Press 2019. A brilliant historical YA that asks: how do you choose between survival and doing the right thing?

    If you love BC history you'll love hearing this interview with Jennifer L.  Butler. Jennifer is the great-granddaughter of Mame and Duke Wastell, who bought and named Telegraph Cove in 1912. 
    Butler's book Boom & Bust: The Resilient Women of Historic Telegraph Cove, published by TouchWood Edition truly is a treasure, and  a must  read. Jennifer and I spoke about some of her many fascinating jobs, life in Telegraph Cove, and so much more.
