Meanderings with Trudy

Meander with Terry Fallis

Episode Summary

Today I’m thrilled to meander with author Terry Fallis, two-time winner of the Stephen Leacock Medal for Humour.

Episode Notes

With ten books under his belt, it's safe to say he's got a good grip on this writing thing. I've read every one and laughed out loud at many. 

This is a very generous conversation with Terry about his writing career, how it came about and where he’s going next. It was a true joy for me to chat with him about his wide-ranging novels - his first book featured Canadian politics (a comedy, really it is) and his latest is a rollicking Canadian spy story. He’s covered a lot of topics writing about what he knows in each. 

We too cover a lot of ground, as we talk storytelling and the ins and outs of how he tales a tale. I learned a lot and had a lot of fun in this meander. I hope you will too!
