More about Mina

Here's a link to Linda Morra's excellent podcast, Getting Lit With Linda, where she discusses BOOKS with keen interest and insight. For this, the last episode of the season, she recommends BOOKS -- and one of them is... Colours in Her Hands! Take note of each book since there are some good ones.

And here is an interview that I did with Sharon Berg for The Themz Review. (Since I like finding points on a map, I want to tell you that Sharon is in Newfoundland, Themz is in London, Ontario, and I'm in Québec, and yet here we all are.) The interview is an excellent discussion about concerns in the novel. If you haven't read the book yet, there are some spoilers. You can still read the interview to whet your appetite, but read it again once you've read the book. Sharon asks good questions.

If you're in a book club or you discuss books with others, then you've surely noticed how opinions differ. As a writer, I continue to marvel at how people focus on different aspects of the novel. What I hope is to touch readers in whatever way.  

Happy Holidays and all the best for 2025!

20 Questions with Jeffrey Davies

Some years ago I met a boy who said he loved to read. He grew into a teen who wrote my Wiki page. He studied English and began writing, now works in a library, and with great determination pursues what he most loves to do. 

Thank you, Jeffrey, for inviting me to do 20 Questions with you!
