Lily writes literary fiction, thrillers, horrors, and crime stories. Her creative non-fiction is pulled from people's stories she has heard along her life journey. Her work has appeared in Half Hour to Kill, Spillwords, The Write Launch, and One and Half, to name a few. She was longlisted in the Globe Soup Short Story Competition and received an honourable mention in the 24-Hour Writing Contest. Her poetry was recently featured in Brushfire Literature and Arts Magazine, University of Nevada, Reno. Lily spends most months writing in her backyard with her faithful companion by her side. She enjoys the same outdoor space with her children and husband in the pool or trampoline when she is not writing. She also enjoys trips to places where they can bike, hike, swim, kayak, and camp, carrying their packs as they move along a trail that covers kilometres. Lily finds happiness in life; she sees it as a gift.
