SUMMARY:Where Fact Meets Fiction
DESCRIPTION:In this lively presentation by author Laurie Ness Gordon\, participants will learn the benefits of historical fiction and how fictitious characters are woven into real events to create an engaging narrative. Meet two characters from Finding Home. Sarah\, a servant orphaned by cholera in London in 1869 desperately seeks her family. Richard\, the disgraced son of an eastern Ontario sawmill owner must redeem himself\, then seek his own path. Their journeys are brought together by a group of Home Children. \nLaurie Ness Gordon\, author of The Medal and Finding Home\, has worked as an educator\, workshop presenter and volunteer Project Manager for a touring art exhibition. She currently supports refugees from Syria and Somalia. She enjoys making music\, travelling\, swimming\, shovelling snow and being ‘productive’. Her favourite holiday memory is a 5-week motorcycle trip across Canada.
