Leslie upon winning the Waterloo Region Arts Award
Leslie Bamford is a published writer of short stories, creative non-fiction, poetry and plays. Her writing has been recognized in literary competitions across multiple genres. She is constantly producing new work, and loves inspiring other writers by teaching creative writing. She is currently working on a book of creative non-fiction exploring life with her wacky husband and his (mis)adventures with heart disease, a rescued black cat with abandonment issues, and an intrusive ghost who looks exactly like her mother. Daily life inspires much of Leslie’s work, offered up with a twist of wry humour combined with inquiring contemplation.
