Working as an author and actress, Glenda found her way to Toronto from the East Coast of Canada in pursuit of story telling, art and happiness. Glenda learned the impact of story telling from her mother, Shirley, at a very young age. So much so, she chose to pursue a career in that same regard. Along this journey she found herself deeply involved in the LGBTQ community and has been a supporter of equal rights and pride for her friends and family ever since. Glenda shares her mothers passion in uniting the world through stories of love and kindness. As a mother Shirley read to her children every night teaching them how important and special they were using stories of love, kindness, and strength. As a personal development coach Shirley understands the value of stories and the power of understanding. Creating new stories for children and families who are not represented in traditional literature is a path she and Glenda share with excitement and pride. Shirley hopes the love and beauty of the LBGTQ community can be shared in your home, with the world, and with your children through these books forever.
