I’m a former academic librarian and library administrator, with a long career in university and research libraries, but I now devote more of my time to writing, freelance editing, and podcasting. I’ve written a book about personal minimalism and co-written a biography of the great stand-up comedian, Greg Giraldo. I’ve also indie-published a (parody of a) murder mystery, called The Killing Type. My current project, which I will publish in 2023, is a biography of Sam Johnson, one of the pre-eminent writers of 18th-century England.

I have a BA(Hons), an MA in English, and an MLS in Library Science.

I live in Ottawa, the capital city of Canada.
