I write a mix of books: novels, biography, short nonfiction under both Shireen Jeejeebhoy and Shireen Anne Jeejeebhoy. I set my novels in Toronto, my home for most of my life, a city of contradictions and ripe with conflict possibilities. My award-winning debut book, Lifeliner: The Judy Taylor Story, is set in Ontario, but also travels down to New York and across the pond to Sweden.
My life is one big question mark, has been ever since I sustained a closed head injury (or mild traumatic brain injury or concussion, whichever moniker is fashionable) in a four-car collision. But my writing keeps me grounded, my photography takes me to other places. I wrote about it and treatments I discovered in my revised memoir Concussion Is Brain Injury: Treating the Neurons and Me -- shortlisted in the 2018 Word Awards -- and I expanded on the learnings at https://concussionisbraininjury.com. My most recent non-fiction book Brain Injury, Trauma, and Grief: How to Heal When You Are Alone complements these two.
When I'm not writing, reading, taking photographs, I'm hunting for good coffee and sensational chocolate.

-----
Time is an ordinary woman turning 40 whose life suddenly undergoes a dramatic change as she's walking along in broad daylight to her safe, boring job. Three boys kidnap her and whisk her to their present: a lab in the future. Their prof is not amused. The boys had promised never again to kidnap people from the past, he reminds them. He orders them to dump her where they took the others: her future, their past. The Nasty Time, they call it. But while they leave her alone in order to prep the time travel cube, a bikini-clad girl slips in and instructs her on how to build a time machine to get back home. But it's all gibberish to Time; she doesn't want to time travel, and she doesn't want to learn . . . until the boys dump her in The Nasty Time. It's 2411. She's still turning 40. And she wants to go home. But she can only do so if she learns to believe in herself.
