Born and raised in the New York City area, I've lived in Toronto for many years. I've written six books; my most recent, the novella, A Gardener On The Moon was the 2010 co-winner of the Ken Klonsky Novella Contest and is published in Toronto by Quattro Books. My writing’s been anthologized and published widely in Canada’s major journals and newspapers.I’ve also worked as a broadcast journalist for CBC Radio in Toronto, and I’m now the host of the literary podcast Words To Go (www.wordstogopodcast.com) which features readings from the published work of up-and-coming writers (prose and poetry). If you'd like to submit your work, go to carolegiangrande.com for guidelines. I blog when I have something to say; join the conversation at The Thoughtful Blogger (carolesbooktalk.wordpress.com)
