Richly deserved; She is a real canadian treasure.

Sadly, she has announced her "retirement" from writing.

No chance. She is a very insightful lady, although the yokels living in her neighbourhood in Huron County do not think much of her because she has been known to drink a little.j

Smart move.

All close. Born in Wingham, lived in Victoria for years, more recently in Clinton.

Her fiction is frequently based in small town Ontario. She's a master of short stories that pack a lot in a small package.
