Naomi Horton

NAOMI HORTON was born in northern Alberta, where the winters are long and the libraries far apart. "When I'd run out of books," she says, "I'd simply create my own–entire worlds filled with people, adventure and romance. I guess it's not surprising that I'm still at it!" This Rita award-winning author is an engineering technologist who she presently lives in Nanaimo, British Columbia, with her collection of assorted pets.
