I am an avid reader and writer. I work part-time in a bookstore where I can indulge my second passion -- listening, watching and observing human behaviour. Like all writers, I am curious almost to the point of nosy. I like to sleep in late and stay up past midnight. I like to lose myself in music and daydream.
I offer creative writing workshops and readings to school groups from grades four to twelve. For more information contact CWILL (Children's Writers and Illustrators of British Columbia)or go to Raincoast Publishers
Other Professional Memberships: FBCW (Federation of BC Writers)
Contact The Authors' Booking Service to book Julie as a Keynote Speaker or Workshop Mentor.
