Born proud and nickel-plated in Sudbury, Canada, Terry didn't stay up there long after 1963. The family moved south to Guelph when he was five where he has lived most of his life except for summers in the bush and a 7 year stint in Nova Scotia.

He was educated despite his best efforts: a Bachelor's in Environmental Science and Biology from the University of Waterloo and a Master’s in Science at Dalhousie University.

“Any belief that puts itself beyond doubt nurtures its own collapse.”
Stephen R. Donaldson, Reave the Just and Other Tales

“There's only two things I hate in this world. People who are intolerant of other people's cultures and the Dutch.”
Michael Caine

C.S. Lewis
“To love at all is to be vulnerable. Love anything and your heart will be wrung and possibly broken. If you want to make sure of keeping it intact you must give it to no one, not even an animal. Wrap it carefully round with hobbies and little luxuries; avoid all entanglements. Lock it up safe in the casket or coffin of your selfishness. But in that casket, safe, dark, motionless, airless, it will change. It will not be broken; it will become unbreakable, impenetrable, irredeemable. To love is to be vulnerable.”
C.S. Lewis, The Four Loves
