Born and raised in Toronto, I am a lover of words and music who has married her two passions by writing a rock and roll book series. Inspired by the song written by Pete Townshend and made famous by The Who, the Behind Blue Eyes novels are set in the Toronto of the late 70s. It is the story of my imagined sad man as he runs from his past and chases his musical and romantic dreams, as well as my love letter to a time and place that is long gone but remembered fondly by many. I am also a teacher who has loved the classroom for over 20 years. I still live happily in Toronto with my husband, and our furry menagerie of three cats and one dog.
