Mallory Eaglewood

This is Mallory Eaglewood’s fifth published work, following Hummingbirds, The Good Life, Pink Pistachios, and Oiseaux-Mouches. In many ways, she can relate to Birdie, this story’s protagonist, having spent most of her own life struggling to understand the human drive to connect with one another, and exploring the subtle complexities of what makes humans do what they do. Winner of an Author of the Year award from the Province Newspaper―for an article about the absurdity of war, member of Federation of BC Writers for many years, Mallory has had a career in teaching literature, working as Head Teacher and Course Programmer. Additionally, Mallory’s life is full of fascinating experiences, from being an officer in the Canadian Military, a meditation mentor in a Buddhist Abbey, and dealing with a gunman in the Syrian desert and a couple of sharks at 30 feet below the surface, off the coast of Bali, checking to see if she were lunch. Along the way, she has lived and worked in Scotland, England, and Greece. This grandmother of three is presently a full-time writer from her home base, a small red cabin in the woods, situated on a sparsely populated little island off the coast of British Columbia. www.malloryeaglewood.com Mallory’s Motto: Do not go gentle into that good night, (but) …Rage, rage against the dying of the light.” Dylan Thomas
