I never get tired of learning new things. With memberships in SCBWI, CANSCAIP, 12 X 12, and The Manuscript Academy, there is always someone teaching me something.

My favorite alias is Nana, and I make the most of living in rural Ontario Canada, boating with my husband and doing agility with my little dog. I also enjoy gardening, golfing, and going to the track to watch our horses. When winter overwhelms or an experience beckons, we’re quick to take flight in the direction of warmer climes.

In the meantime, I relish the role of offering unique promotions to our clients, as VP of marketing at Langlois Financial Services Inc., a company we founded in 1989.

Although the manuscript that most demanded to be written is adult creative nonfiction, my heart belongs to picture books. I have several picture book manuscripts, and new stories constantly wake me up in the middle of the night.
