The Writers' Union of Canada provided me with invaluable support at a difficult point in my career when it seemed that all the decision-making power over my work was in the hands of the publishing industry. I will always be grateful for that, as well as for the work that the Union continues to do every day to promote and protect the rights of writers.

Born and raised in Kingston, Jamaica, I have worked for over thirty years, teaching in both Jamaica and Canada. I pursued graduate studies in education in Canada and held administrative positions including the post of Principal of my alma mater, St. George’s College in Kingston, Jamaica. I have a great passion for Caribbean literature and history. I have recently completed my second novel, Huareo: Story of a Jamaican Cacique, which I have also translated into Spanish. I am now researching and writing my fourth, Where the Pineapple could not not Grow, Memoris of a Maroon Chief. My wife and I reside in Markham, Ontario, Canada.
