Trudy J. Morgan-Cole is a writer and educator living in St. John’s. Her historical fiction includes Most Anything You Please (2017), of which she says “Maybe it’s not the great Canadian novel, or even the great Newfoundland novel, but I like to think it’s the great Rabbittown novel.” Her latest book is Such Miracles and Mischiefs (Breakwater, 2021).
