I have a story in the latest issue of Existere magazine, and this one is for my grandmother—my first and favourite storyteller.
She always said, “Story don’t ever finish—people just stop talking.”
This is me, still talking. Still remembering.
Thank you, Existere, for giving it a home.

Merci à Cult MTL, au Salon du livre et à l’AELAQ pour les laissez-passer au Salon du livre. Passer la journée au Palais des congrès avec ma mère et ma sœur cadette a été vraiment spécial. Retrouver mon cher ami Lawrence Hill, brillant écrivain et personne si chaleureuse, a été un vrai cadeau.

What an unforgettable way to celebrate my bday—at the Writers’ Trust of Canada Awards!
The word of the night, for me, was empathy. Writers feel—we feel so much—and that depth of emotion was palpable tonight. Congrats to all the winners and finalists. #writers #authors #poets #fiction #nonfiction
