Jane Woods was born in Cleveland, Ohio. She grew up in Montreal and is a graduate of the National Theatre School of Canada. She has worked extensively as a voice actor and a translator. She lives in Toronto.
As everyone in the same boat knows, having a book come out during a pandemic poses no end of sticky challenges. With the doors shut tight against a frightening world, it’s just you, your mewling little newborn novel, and any harebrained promotional ideas you can dream up.
This homegrown video came about as a pandemic project, a way to stave off despair (oh, so much despair!) My talented collaborators and I tried to condense Running Downhill Like Water into graphics, music, and snippets of text so as to give a brief—and, I hope, intriguing— taste of the book’s characters and themes.
It was good, nail-biting fun to make, and I’m so pleased to have the chance to post it here!
