“Love Letters…” Live on Calgary Radio

Posted on December 16, 2014 by Jennifer Quist

Last winter, I traveled to Calgary to do a live radio interview at CJSW about my debut novel. My hosts were Paul Kennett and Emily Ursuliak, a writer deservedly known as one of the most generous and hardest working people in the Calgary literary scene.

Since it was live, I didn’t get to hear the interview anywhere but in my headphones and I was pleased this week when Emily sent me a link to a podcast of our talk.

Here I am talking about the Catholic Church, my bff, and commenting on technical elements of the book that I’d never had a chance to speak about in public until this smart interviewer raised them.

Woke Up This Morning a Published Novelist

Posted on August 3, 2013 by Jennifer Quist

See, it’s real. Here I am with stacks of beautiful, traditionally published books I wrote myself

This morning when I woke up, my publisher was messaging to congratulate me on the release of my debut novel and my five-year-old son was throwing up in the hallway. Way to keep it real, Sweetie-Boy.

My good mood is holding up well anyway. If you’d rather not come get a signed copy of Love Letters of the Angels of Death at my house, the book is available from the publisher, in online stores, and is making its way into fine bookstores (coming soon to my local, Sunworks in Red Deer, Alberta).

Woohoo!
