Signing “44 Hours or Strike!” at the OLA Conference
I was thrilled to meet two fellow authors from Second Story Press at the OLA Conference last week in Toronto. Patrick Crowe, has written a moving graphic biography of Susanna Moodie’s, Roughing It in the Bush. My writer-friend, Rona Arato, was signing her new book, The Ship to Nowhere: On Board the Exodus. Both authors tell their stories through skilful prose and remarkable illustrations.
