Killing someone softly with words is greatly appealing to a North Toronto matron like Jane. After raising three wonderful daughters in a 4th generation family home, she was ready for more adventure. Finding a way to use fashion, vegetables and small animals in her stories to bring about justice, albeit rough justice, became her challenge.
To her utter amazement, Jane won the Bony Pete Short Story Award for “Slow Death and Taxes”, the first short story she wrote. She went on to publish several more short stories in Blood on the Holly; Bloody Words, the Anthology; and all six of the Mesdames anthologies.
Jane’s story, There Be Dragons”, published in 13 Claws was a finalist for the CWC Best Short Story award. She was honored to be included in the 2025 anthology celebrating the Bristol CrimeFest.
