Autorenporträt
Harriet Richards's creative reality was as a visual artist until an obstinate painting, based on a recurrent dream, insisted on becoming a short story. She has since published three books of fiction. The Lavender Childwas nominated for the Fiction Award and won the First Book Award at the Saskatchewan Book Awards in 1998. Waiting for the Piano Tuner to Die (coming out in a new edition from Shadowpaw Press Reprise in 2025) was nominated for Book of the Year at the 2003 Saskatchewan Book Awards, and in 2003, The Pious Robber was nominated for Book of the Year and won the Fiction Award. Her short fiction has been published in literary journals in Canada and Wales, and her paintings have appeared on book covers in both countries. She has mentored emerging writers through the Saskatchewan Writers' Guild and has edited numerous books of fiction and literary essays for writers across Canada.
