I went to the Algonquin school of Fine Arts in Ottawa. My father is a history buff so that is reflected in my work. I've always written poetry but never really got around to writing stories until just recently. My new novel Inferno was published in 2003. 

I have a book of poetry, Soul Speak, published by Renaissance Alliance Publishing, and have poems featured in 'A Time of Trial', and 'Oval Victory', published by Hidden Brook Press. My new novel, 'Inferno', is due to be published in 2003. My work has appeared internationally, most recently in Elan: A Regina Weese Collection, published in 2005, and in a chapbook, Sharing the Dark, Encounters With The Abyss, also published in 2005.

Jeff Seffinga asked me to judge a prestigious Canadian literary award, The Acorn-Plantos Award, for the 2004 best book of poetry. Reading 30 books of poetry in 6 weeks was daunting but it was also a labour of love. I look forward to judging other awards.
