Hi, I’m Carole Giangrande — the author of the novels An Ordinary Star and A Forest Burning and the short story collection Missing Persons (all of them published by Cormorant Books) as well as two non-fiction books. My novella, A Gardener On The Moon was the 2010 co-winner of the Ken Klonsky Novella Contest and is published 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). In what spare time I have, I’m a part-time student of theology and languages (Italian and French) and an avid gardener, music lover and photographer.

Dear Carole,
As you may have figured out by now…when I “landed” in your magical space on here the other night, I thought that I had found a way to communicate with my old acquaintance, Gale Garnett
As somewhat of a mystical person…believing there are no mistakes in the Universe…I have decided to stay if you will have me.
Happily learning of you and your work.You inspire me to write again…once…the child poet that gave up the fantasy for the stage very early in life. If you can, please send Gayle my best regards.

Nice to have you on board!
Carole. Thank you for the invitation to join your blog. Now I can do some thoughtful reading and quiet reflection. Always my fond regards.
