Being an outsider

Alison Garwood-Jones January 18, 2017

This week on Willful, I sat down with Angela Misri (‪@karmicangel‪ ‬), a Toronto-based journalist and former CBC’er, now a co-host of the podcast, Ada’s Sisters (with Eden Spodek), and the author of the A Portia Adams Adventure Series. In Ep. 2, Angela talks about:‬‬

• Being something other than a doctor or an engineer, and telling her South Asian parents about it.
• The teacher who changed her life
• Being an outsider
• What makes a good mystery writer

Willful is the web series that tracks how artists and creative entrepreneurs work, thrive and survive. We interview one artist a week, then post five three-minute snack films from that interview on YouTube every day. 

Follow us here or on our YouTube Channel and Facebook Page for our entire archive of inspiring interviews.

Shot and edited by the talented Yann Yap.

Thank you to Greg Garson and the entire staff at  The Merchant Taps & Tavern for hosting us.
