Author

G. A. Twedily started writing this book in 1997, one year before the 1998 World Cup. It took him two decades to complete. On many occasions he was close to giving up, but he tenaciously continued to slowly plod forward, earning himself the nickname of Steadily Twedily. He started writing in 1995 when he took Creative Writing classes at Concordia University Continuing Education. He subsequently became a member of the Caravan Collective, a group of writers who work shopped each other’s work and put on a series of public readings at various locations across Montreal. He wrote several short stories (a selection published in Tales, Sad, and Blue) before focusing on writing novels. He is currently working on his second and third novels (Is it so barbaric to live with the trees? and Walking Through the Madness) at the steady pace his moniker suggests.
