Nowick Gray:
I write in a variety of genres, each work teasing the dynamics of choice among multiple realities: romantic relationships, plot endings, murder suspects, virtual worlds, alternate timelines, narrative loops, stylistic colorings.
Most of my stories and essays are set in places where I like to spend time: natural surroundings. My writing draws from two decades of homesteading in the interior mountains of British Columbia. Other adventures include teaching for three years in Quebec Inuit villages – an experience from which the mystery novel Hunter’s Daughter arose – and indulging a lasting passion for West African drumming as a student, teacher, performer and author.
Since 2019 I have written a weekly column for the online magazine New Agora, as well as occasional articles for GlobalResearch.ca and the Islands Marketplace. You can also find my ongoing topical posts on Substack.
I have contributed short fiction and essays to a variety of periodicals and anthologies since 1976, when I received an MA in Canadian literature from the University of Victoria. Currently working as a freelance copyeditor, helping other writers improve their work for publication, I make my home on Salt Spring Island, BC, with winter travels in warmer locations.
