Today, I'm the featured writer in Joan Dempsey's Gutsy Great Novelist Writers Studio. Here's my response to the question: When did you first realize you wanted to write a novel? Was there a particular person or experience that inspired you?

​My younger sisters' bedroom adjoined mine, with nightly consequences. I invented a communication code and taped it to the back walls of our side-by side closets. Long after we were supposed to be asleep, I'd go into the closet and communicate with them through a series of special knocks. Taking two flashlights, I crawled into the dark hallway and shone lights on the back wall of their bedroom. The wild, invented stories began. Often, they were inspired by a children's novel I'd just read. It was important to keep this a secret from our parents, who'd ruin all the fun if they knew!

Knock, knock. Time for a story.

Rocks, trees and water.  Perfection.

The water flows in from snow melts to the north and runs through rivers and rapids until it meets Lake Rosseau.  Once this location was home to a logging mill.  The river would have been jammed with felled trees.  Finally all the trees were stripped away from the land.  Now many years later, we see nature has renewed herself.
​ Pristine perfection. Can you hear the water call?
