His literary career started on CBC Radio with a serial called Bachelor Brothers’ Bed & Breakfast that was so popular, it morphed into a book series which won the Stephen Leacock Medal for Humour in 1994. He has written an eclectic range of books including Waiting for Gertrude: A Graveyard Gothic, Scorned & Beloved: Dead of Winter Meetings with Canadian Eccentrics, Queen of all the Dustballs: And Other Epics of Everyday Life, After Hamelin (which won the prestigious Silver Birch Award), and more.
