Jessica Grant Poetry and socially sensitive touch thatJessica Grant, author of Making Light of Tragedy, is from St. Johns, Newfoundland, but loves all provinces and territories equally. She has lived in Toronto, Buffalo, Portland and Calgary. She is a proud member of Burning Rock, a group of very hip writers in St. Johns who kindly took her into their fold a few years ago. She has been a technical writer and a singer songwriter, but writing stories is by far the best job shes had.
