This latest one was inspired by my husband's family who lived through the battle for Hong Kong in 1941. I knew that story, but when I realized that two Canadian battalions - the Winnipeg Grenadiers and the Royal Rifles of Canada - had fought in it, less than a month after being sent there, I knew I had to write something about it.

For an English class, we had to choose a short story from our Grade 9 textbook from which we had to do a project. Golden Girl was one of the choices, and I found it so entertaining to read, making it my final choice. So, I was wondering what was your inspiration for writing Golden Girl?
