Absolutely thrilled to have won the Danuta Gleed Literary Award from The Writers' Union of Canada. it was an impressive shortlist and I honestly was not expecting this. I had to sit on the information for just under a week until the formal announcememt, which was done as an Instagram Live event. And keeping secrets is absolutely NOT my forte. To celebrate, had a lovely dinner with the Fam Four gang, including Lee Lai who is hot off several awards and high profile noms. Cannon
