ⓘ About Lesley Crewe

Lesley was a features writer and columnist (Home Fires) for Cape Bretoner Magazine from 2000-2005, and then from 2005-2009, was a columnist (Lesley’s Letters) for Cahoots, an online magazine. She loves ordinary moments, and celebrates everyday things. They are too often lost in the race something grand, she finds. She holds dear everyone’s humdrum routines. These accumulating hours make up our own lifetimes and when we remember, it’s always the simplest of pleasures which make us happy. It’s these memories that she creates in her novels. She and her husband were raised in Montreal, however they’ve lived in the same house in rural Cape Breton for forty-five years. It has always been a sanctuary for their kids and pets, both living as well as remembered.
