Celebrating the Leacock Medal with Heidi L.M. Jacobs

Dr. Heidi L.M. Jacobs was born and raised in Edmonton. A graduate of the University of Alberta, the University of Nebraska-Lincoln, and Western University, she is currently the English and History Librarian at the University of Windsor. Those of you who are regular listeners may recall that we interviewed Jacobs last June, just after the release of her debut novel, Molly of the Mall: Literary Lass and Purveyor of Fine Footwear. Recently, Heidi L.M. Jacobs was announced as the winner of the 2020 Stephen Leacock Memorial Medal for Humour for her novel. We’ve invited her to come back and celebrate with us. Find out more about the book here: https://newestpress.com/
