Jane Harris's creative non-fiction chapter, "Jessie's Generation: Canada's Firebrands of Mercy and Justice," on page 204 of Hot Apple Cider, tells the true story of Jessie Robinson, a well-to-do woman from Lethbridge, Alberta, who made a difference in her community and beyond.
Jane Harris (also Jane Harris Zsovan) was 16 when she typed up her first article and mailed it off to a magazine that came inside the Edmonton Journal. A few weeks later, she proudly displayed the rejection slip to her teachers and friends. But she soon figured out how to get acceptances.
Today she's a full-time author and journalist based in Lethbridge, Alberta. An incorrigible writer, Jane's writing style combines thorough research with lively writing to reveal personalities behind contemporary and historical events.
