Sarah Butland remembers her school days of announcing her aspirations of being a writer and the naysayers' reaction, to which she replied "watch me." Now, with an article titled Full Capacity Sparkle in Atlantic Books Today, she only hopes they are. She lives in Pictou County, Nova Scotia, and previously spent many years exploring the streets of Moncton, New Brunswick, collecting stories, memories and meeting interesting people. She's the author of Losing It At 40 and Gaining It At 41.
