About Me
- Chris McMahen
- Armstrong, British Columbia, Canada
- When not wandering about, hopelessly lost, I live in British Columbia’s Spallumcheen Valley, only a short bike ride away from the small city of Armstrong. I am proud to be the self-proclaimed holder of the title, “Worst Ex-recreational Hockey Player in Canada.” I used my many years of on-ice futility as primary research for my 2007 novel Klutzhood (http://www.orcabook.com). I have also spun a lifelong fascination with tabloid newspapers into a novel for young readers–Tabloidology (http://www.orcabook.com). My first novel, published in 1996, was the cult classic Buddy Concrackle’s Amazing Adventure (Coteau Books), although I’m not exactly sure which cult thinks it’s a classic. Published in the Fall of 2011 is my fourth novel, Box of Shocks. When I’m not huddled over a keyboard or pad of paper writing, I can often be found in one of many places. I may be cycling the back roads or trails of the Spallumcheen Valley, lost somewhere on a ski trail, or in an elementary school in Armstrong where I work as a teacher-librarian and classroom teacher.
Glad you had a good tour! You will have made a great impact on so many readers! Now, on to the next book!
ReplyDeleteSounds like a great trip! I enjoy reading your blog a lot, Very entertaining! Always fun to read, as all of your writing is.
ReplyDeleteI'm actually moving to Kitchener, ON [1 HR Approx. From Ontario] as my parents got job offers there. It looks beautiful; I'm quite excited. Hopefully attending a private school there, which is quite exciting. Will be a change, thats for sure! Could you possibly write me a reference? I know you see so many children they're hard to remember! But if yes, that would be fabulous.
