It's good to know that there are people who understand what you're doing at home while much of Canada is stuck in rush-hour traffic. The Writers' Union protects your right to write.

Trudee Romanek
Trudee came to writing through the back door. She studied English and drama at the University of Toronto with the intention of becoming an editor. The thought of writing professionally never really crossed her mind. For several years she was an editor of math, science and language arts textbooks. She was then lured into the world of children's trade publishing and became the book editor for Greey de Pencier/Books from OWL.
The birth of her first child convinced Trudee to go freelance and it was during that time that she began to write — educational material and articles for a few trade magazines — and produced the first of more than a dozen non-fiction books.
In 2015, Trudee's first work of fiction, a young adult novel, was published by Orca Books. She lives in her hometown of Barrie, Ontario, with her husband and three children.
