Welcome to my website!

I'm so glad you found me here. I see literature as a partnership between author and reader. I put my vision on the page and you, the reader, bring to it your own perceptions, experiences and insight. Together we create a new book with each read.

I live in Toronto with my husband and two amazing daughters. While writing, I learned to skate, courtesy of my daughters, swim, knit and crochet. I am not the fastest skater or swimmer or knitter, but I have endurance. This is true of my writing. I have never knitted according to a pattern, but have designed my own, for better or worse. This is also true of my books.

Our journey together can continue through the wonders of the internet. I hope that you'll visit me at Q & A With Lilian Nattel to discover more about my books, how they were researched and what inspired me. I post book reviews at A Writer Reads.

At A Novelist's Mind, you can read about my current research, interesting discoveries, beauty in art and nature and my reflections about it. I love to hear from readers. Ask me questions, make a comment, or see what I'm reading by using the Contact Me page.
