Hiromi Goto

Hiromi Goto used to be a horsey girl who never had a horse. Now she writes stories. She is not saying there is a correlation but that doesn't mean one can't be found. She is a queer feminist Japanese Canadian with two grown children. She's won numerous awards and has published books in adult fiction, YA, middle readers, and poetry. She would also ride a Clydesdale, a mustang, a Friesian, and a Mongol horse. She's served as writer-in-residence in universities across Western Canada. She's currently the YA/Genre mentor through The Writer's Studio at Simon Fraser University. She tweets at @hinganai, and her website can be found at www.hiromigoto.com.
