About Lorne Daniel

 

Lorne Daniel grew up in Alberta, tall and curious.


Over the years, Lorne has written poetry, reviews, newspaper columns and magazine articles and had his work broadcast on CBC and CKUA radio. His essay "Today is the Frontier" about growing up in Alberta’s oil patch won the 1995 Jon Whyte Memorial Essay Prize.


In his professional life, Lorne’s company Grandview Consulting Inc. has won regional, national and international awards for its writing, communications consulting, and planning work.


Lorne believes that writing is a process of discovery. As a writer, he is changed by the process of finding words within experiences, experiences within words.


Lorne follows the best weather back and forth between Red Deer AB and Victoria BC – with the latter most often winning out. You can follow his flits, flights and tweets on Twitter or check out his website and his blog.
