I moved to the Northwest Territories as a young woman and travelled the Arctic as the Edmonton Journal’s northern correspondent. I’m still here, raising a globe-tripping family in the wilderness, grateful for the natural grandeur and insightful people in my life. (“Hi Mom!”) Sometimes I work at the CBC, sometimes I write songs . . . and once, I had the luxury of spending months at home in silence to write “The Bear Within.”
