I used to hate them. Not the horses though. I love horses, but they were never enough to keep me interested in watching a bunch of dudes killing each other. And the women all seemed cut of the same gingham cloth.

The Accidental Novelist
I never intended to write a novel. But I did. And HarperCollins published it. Titled The Gorgeous Girls, it was based on a number of pieces I'd written for Toronto's NOW magazine. They appeared in NOW's feature, Naked City, which was all about love and sex.
