In the fall of 1973, I developed a desperate crush on my English 9 teacher, halfway through the unit on Macbeth that she was teaching. My passions for Renaissance literature and English composition have raged unabated ever since. Indeed, they have only deepened through time: the former through graduate studies in Spenser, Shakespeare, Donne and Milton; the latter through teaching a range of composition courses at UBC, the University of Toronto, a private school and here at our beloved Kwantlen Polytechnic University.
