Marie-Claude Arnott is thrilled to have joined the Tule Publishing Group as the first author of its new nonfiction imprint. Her memoir Biography of a Friendship was released in March 2024.
She lives in Vancouver with her husband and regularly visits her family in France and California. As a fourteen-year-old writing expressive letters to her best friend’s father in a long-term facility, she was told she should be a writer. Instead, she studied foreign languages early on, then got a BA in International Studies and a diploma for a two-year distance learning course from the London School of Journalism, later. She wrote for a citizen journalism site, SEO-based content, travel stories for an award-winning digital magazine, and a column for a newspaper. A collection of nonfiction stories and a novel inspired by a true story are in the works. She is a member of the Federation of British Columbia Writers, the North Shore Writers’ Association, and the International Women’s Writing Guild.
Golf, gardening, the sunsets of the Northwest, the fun of fashion, and French pastries are a few of her favorite things.
