Kelli Hanrahan is currently living in Eastern Canada, spreading her wings beyond the safe gentle shores of Prince Edward Island, and onto la belle ville de Montreal, with a pit-stop in Halifax. She is very grateful for the opportunity to write for Edwards, as it gives her the focus and forum that she needs as a writer. Kelli is currently writing a children’s adventure story involving such magical beings as dragons, dwarves, elves, and wizards, and a princess who rescues a knight. The theme of the story is forgiveness. “Forgiveness is a gift you give yourself,” says Kelli.
Ada Mau has grown up in several different cultures and places. Currently she calls herself a Londoner; she has also lived in California and Hong Kong. After being dissatisfied with life in the rat race for a few years, she decided to go back to university to obtain her postgraduate education. She is now working as an academic researcher. Her research interests include issues and discourses of identities, gender, cultural transmission, and social justice within formal and informal education and cultural policies. When she is not busy reading research journals and interviewing people, Ada enjoys music, art, good food, travelling, cool clothes and shoes.
Erin McGrath-Gaudet In the chaos which followed, Erin managed to find a job that she loves
at UPEI working as a project researcher/coordinator with the
Comprehensive School Health Research Team. She enjoys
ranting about social issues whether it be about public funding for
social programs, the justice system, or the lack of a police presence
in certain local neighborhoods.
