Julie, Fama Photography

I am an avid reader and writer. I work part-time in a bookstore where I can indulge my second passion -- listening, watching and observing human behaviour. Like all writers, I am curious almost to the point of nosy. I like to sleep in late and stay up past midnight. I like to lose myself in music and daydream.

In 2008 and I had the honor to act as a judge for the BC Book Prizes Sheila A Egoff Children's Literature Prize.

I offer creative writing workshops and readings to school groups from grades four to twelve. For more information contact CWILL (Children's Writers and Illustrators of British Columbia)or go to Raincoast Publishers
