2018 Ontario Writers Workshop Bill MacDonald Prize For Prose (Non fiction) 2nd Place Winner

“In this artfully constructed piece, what seems like a normal morning run turns out to be a moving meditation on small town angst, childrearing, and the double-edged sword of a tourism economy. I really could feel what it’s like to be in Kenora in this piece, and I especially loved the last, deceptively simple but ominous line: “I can see that for now at least everything is as it should be.”
