About

Newfoundland Native Lover of Words …

Jeanette Winsor is a graduate of The Humber School for Writers, Toronto, and has been writing both novels and short stories for the past twenty-five years. Many of her works are set in Newfoundland out-ports as she tries to capture a culture that is quickly giving way to the modern world. Having spent most of her life in education, teaching both nationally and internationally, she has retired to write. Her first novel The Apprenticeship of Molly Chant was published in 2020, followed by her second, The Healer’s Journey in 2021.

She currently lives in Essa Township, Ontario, where, in her spare time, she knits, sews, cooks, and has found that a twenty-minute nap in the afternoon really does revive the body and mind.
