Cat Delaney - Writer/Editor
Accolades
“Wow! It’s a great tale wonderfully told. You run the gamut of emotions with ease, and I especially like your use of humour around what is still a very delicate subject [what to do with your mother’s ashes].” Declan Kelly, Arts and Lifestyles Editor, The Guelph Mercury, said of Cat’s piece about her mother’s ashes; read it in the “In Cat’s Words” section of this website.
And about Cat’s upcoming satire book, Success Sucks!, to be published soon, Editor Brian Henry said: “As a reader, I was really turned on by the subject, and as an editor, I’d say a book [like this] has tons of potential. I enjoy your wit and I enjoy your insights even more.” And Toronto Fringe Festival winner for his black comedy, Bella Donna, playwright David Copelin says, “I must say I laughed a lot. Good on yer for going after those charlatans. I hope somebody publishes the book and you make as much money as the fake gurus.” Read the jacket flap copy in the “In Cat’s Words” section of this website.
