I’m Judith Chant and I’m the Fiction Director for Indigo. I’ve always been an avid reader of cereal boxes, transit transfers, anything with words.

I was a late reader as I preferred to be read to as a child, but once I got the hang of it there’s been no looking back. I have eclectic tastes and my job allows me to see a wide range of styles, a great opportunity. I read a great deal for my job but for pure escapism I chose mysteries, perhaps because I don’t currently buy that category and no decision making is required.

I’ve been doing this job for some time now but I still love the thrill of discovering a new author or a book which blows my socks off.
