Hi Lise!

I remember you so well, and very fondly. Our meeting was brief but vividly memorable at Goddard College. Thanks so much for your kind note. Luciana was a terrific woman and she was a powerful force for women’s voices — it will be extremely difficult to fill her shoes. She did a lot for the Toronto literary community as well. She was incredibly dedicated to Inanna. I am still stunned that she is no longer with us, and feel very lucky to have had this moment to interview her, even if so briefly.

I hope you are well, Lise, and wish you a very happy new year! 🙂

I’ve just read her interview with Luciana Ricciutelli of Inanna Press and am so grateful for it. I too am an Inanna author, my memoir was published with them in 2018 and I was so well taken care of by the Inanna team.
I was crushed to hear of Luciana’s death last week. I met her only once briefly at an event in Toronto and until this interview knew nothing about her other than the fact she was editor-in-chief of the press. Knowing more as I do now of her passion and dedication to feminist voices, I am even sadder that she is no longer with us.
thank you, Jocelyn, and I hope we meet again!
Lise (you onetime Goddard colleague)
