Autorenporträt
Joy Lenentine first learned about the power of language to comfort and inspire at a very young age, through her Grade 5 English teacher. She went on to get a degree in English Literature. More recently, she has discovered the value of using language to process the past and present, to share observations and experiences, and to bring people on widely diverging paths together in mutual understanding. Nature has always been her most significant source of wisdom, healing, and peace. She lives in Hartland, NB, Canada with her two teenage sons.
