Norma Budden

Biography

Norma Budden currently resides with her three children and grandboy in Nunavut, one of three territories located in Arctic Canada. Having been her home for nearly two decades, Norma has grown used to living as part of a minority amongst the Inuit people.

Norma enjoys outdoor living though she can never seem to get enough of spending time in the great outdoors. She works as an Administration Manager for The North West Company and, in her spare time, tries her best to keep up with her writing endeavours which include, but are not limited to, her website and multiple blogs.

Reading, traveling and photography are some of Norma’s greatest pleasures though she also enjoys time spent in the kitchen creating recipes and baking.

In time, it is Norma’s hope that she will be immersed in the writing industry full-time, focussing the majority of her time on the written word.
