The plaque unveiling and book launch was awesome! The day before the launch/unveiling, there was a huge article in the Montreal Gazette about the Ukrainians of Point St. Charles who were interned during WWI as enemy aliens. Lots of good quotes and some poignant photographs. The article was written by Monique Polak, a fellow CANSCAIPer and all-round awesome person. I’d like to get her to join kidcrit but she’s way too busy!
Here’s a bit about Monique.
Since getting back from Montreal, I’ve been working on Roxolana, albeit still very slowly. I’m expecting the edits for Daughter of War any day now and am looking forward to plunging in. Maybe that will jumpstart Roxolana.
I also saw the cover for Daughter of War. It is STUNNING! I can hardly wait to show it off!
