Kathleen L MooreI am a mother of 3 and grandmother of 6 and live in the remote Bella Coola Valley on the Central Coast of British Columbia, Canada. I grew up in Ontario and our family moved here in 1974. We have been self-employed since 1995 running a small greenhoue business for 26 years. I have written stories and poetry all my life. In 1969, I won the Birks Award for English. I am a visual artist in pen and ink and watercolour and I have shown my work in several exhibitions and created the cover for my book 'The Jewelled Kingdom'. My approach to writing is also very visual. I am also part of a Voices in Bloom group who meet monthly on Zoom. This is my first book although I have written prose and poetry for many years from childhood with some of my poetry being used for various celebrations. Read More Read Less
