Ms. Clarke dreamed of writing a book one day, but it was only when the COVID-19 pandemic struck and she was retired by her employer that she considered fulfilling her dream. After retrieving from storage a dusty box of her decades-old journals, several of which she wrote as a teenager and young woman, she began to read through them. She found inspiration from these journals and within a year, Remembering: Reckless and Loose on the Streets of Toronto materialized.
In her thirties onward, she worked as an administrative and executive assistant in both provincial and municipal governments. In her fifties, she changed occupations and became a Health Support Worker and Fitness Instructor for seniors. Now in her sixties, Ms. Clarke lives a more quiet life but still enjoys movies, reading, music and live concerts. She also loves to travel. Journal writing remains a regular pastime.
Ms. Clarke lives just north of Toronto with her cat, Joey, and spends weekends and holidays with her long-time boyfriend. She also looks after the needs of her elderly mother who lives nearby. She now dreams about becoming a successful fiction author one day.
