Thomas Sullivan

Uncle Tom's Gabbin' ... and So Am I Thomas Sullivan

Maybe it's the heritage, but Uncle Thomas Sullivan and niece Catherine Astolfo have always had a penchant for telling stories. Like their Southern Irish ancestors, their tales reflect both the light and dark of this world. Some of them will leave you laughing, while others will make you cry. All of them are a small slice of reality, exploring the human condition in its many permutations. Catherine Astolfo is the author of The Emily Taylor Mystery novel series and Sweet Karoline, a standalone, all published by Imajin Books. In 2012, she won the Arthur Ellis Award for Best Short Crime Story in Canada. "What Kelly Did", first published by NorthWord Literary magazine, is included in this collection. www.catherineastolfo.com Tom Sullivan was born in Brampton.
