Helen Walsh is the founder/president of Diaspora Dialogues, Canada's premier literary mentoring organization.

“The baddies would quake, the babies would live, and if there was collateral damage of the slow-moving who couldn’t get out of the way, whoever said life was fair was a loser anyway.”
Helen Walsh, Pull Focus

“Give a foolish, weak man with a Mussolini self-image enough rope and he’ll hang himself, or so my hope in retributive justice went.”
Helen Walsh, Pull Focus

“Death is not revenge. It’s the only choice left to you, a preventative measure, in a game whose rules were rigged before it began.”
Helen Walsh, Pull Focus

“Death is not revenge. It’s the only choice left to you, a preventative measure, in a game whose rules were rigged before it began.”
Helen Walsh, Pull Focus

“What I failed to recognize, at least until it became impossible not to, is how the kind of intense anger that burned inside Clare justified its own set of rules. Or just how much it would come to mirror my own.”
Helen Walsh, Pull Focus

“Men’s insatiable desire for female flesh; was there no acceptable limit?”
