Syd Lapan (She/Her)
Syd spent 20+ years as a private investigator, which generated a lot of good stories. So she thought she would tell those stories herself. They are all true, more or less. She submitted one to a contest in Nanaimo. Some of the others, she will have to send out of province, as they are a tad dangerous.
She only started writing by accident after a late night FB rant to Ivan Coyote. That rant ended up in "Care Of." Her version is "How I Hitched a Ride to the GG's Desk."
At 69 y/o, She’s the only queer Jew on Gabriola. Come visit.
Letters in collaboration with writer Ivan Coyote and artist Zoë van Dijk
