Name: Regan W. H. Macaulay
Regan has been writing since the age of seven, directing since high school, and producing theatre, film and television for the last eighteen years. She has now turned her attention to the world of prose and children’s literature. She has composed the text for several picture storybooks (currently making the rounds at various publishing companies) and in January 2009, she completed her first novel for middle-grade readers. In December 2010, "Aoife's Kiss Magazine" published Regan's short story, The Kiss. Now she's pleased to have her work included in Yesteryear Fiction, specifically her flash fiction story, Sloth the Lazy Dragon.

Her recent theatre experience includes co-writing, co-producing and directing The Aquarium at the 2010 Fringe of Toronto Theatre Festival. In 2007, she directed Shakespeare’s Brain by Allison McWood at the New Ideas Festival in Toronto. She also directed and co-produced Allison McWood’s It Was Kit, which was performed at the Fringe of Toronto Theatre Festival and the Best of the Fringe Holdover Festival in the summer of 2006. She co-wrote The Paradise Lust Romance Series, which she also produced and directed independently in Toronto (at the Drama Workshop) in 2002. Regan is currently polishing a draft of a horror-comedy play.
Accomplishments in film and TV include directing the reality series, Fairy Tale II (OUTtv), directing several episodes from the documentary series, Literature Alive Seasons 1 & 2 (Bravo!), producing, directing and co-writing the short film, The Scary Bitch Project (SPACE, SCREAM and Drive-In Classics), as well as the feature film, Space Zombies: 13 Months of Brain-Spinning Mayhem! (SPACE and Drive-In Classics). She was Associate Producer for the first season of the documentary series, Literature Alive, and the feature film, A Winter Tale (Leda Serene Films / CaribbeanTales), which screened at the 2007 ReelWorld Film Festival and won the Tonya Lee Williams Award for Outstanding Canadian Feature.
When she's not writing prose, or spending time with her talented husband Kevin (also a writer), she spends time with her beloved pets (including her Chihuahua, Siamese cats, and multitudes of frogs and toads and the like) and will soon be studying Canine Massage Therapy, and Herbal Remedies and Aromatherapy. Animals have always been a passion of Regan's and are, more often than not, characters in her children's literature, as well as some of her films.
