**2022 Wattys Shortlist for "We Find What Is Lost," the first title in the Terribly Acronymed Detective Club series**

I'm a Cataloguing Assistant working at Vancouver Public Library. I'm married and a father of one teenager who has painted their entire room (and the floor besides!) I enjoy running, reading and writing, and fortunately, or unfortunately, have had plenty of time for both during this pandemic. I have tried my hand at fantasy and at horror and mystery, and have come to realize that the most riveting of stories can be found in our day to day existence.
