The following is an excerpt from Off the Record edited by John Metcalf (Biblioasis, December 2023)I’d like to say a few words about my writing for children, which I began around the time I was writing the stories in Pleased to Meet You. This is the other half of my writing career. There’s only one other writer in Canada with a completely dual career in literary fiction and children’s literature—the wonderful Cary Fagan. I started writing for kids when my son was five.
