Victoria Goddard
Victoria Goddard is an author with a PhD in medieval studies from the University of Toronto.
She works as a sexton at an Anglican church in Nova Scotia and draws inspiration from her academic background in poetry and philosophy.
Goddard's writing focuses on the ordinary lives of magical people and the extraordinary deeds of ordinary folk.
She cites Patricia McKillip, Connie Willis, and Lois McMaster Bujold as influential authors.
In 2013, she fulfilled a long-held dream by walking across England, an experience that likely informs her world-building and storytelling.
