I had stopped writing fiction and earned a living by writing advertising and website content out of an office in downtown Montreal. I loved the job, had a corner office with a window and lots of weird stuff clients sent. It was a blast. I earned an MA from Concordia University, with my thesis being a collection of my short stories. I had an early online fiction magazine. In fact, it was so early it won a place on the best 500 sites on the internet! I have proof\u2013It was a heady time over 20 years ago and when I left the job; I wrote a novel which became my novel in a drawer, called\u2013well it\u2019s such a great title, I don\u2019t want to share it because I plan to put it out as a serial.<\/p>\n\n\n\n So in search of like-minded spirits, I went to a conference\u2013I think it was Sleuthfest\u2013and described my murder tale to an agent who let me know no one would ever be interested in a novel set in Quebec. On a sour note, if I remembered her name, I\u2019d send her a copy of one of Louise Penny\u2019s 27 award winning cozies. Lesson number one, hold suggestions loosely.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
