I get all my best ideas in my sleep.Back in 2017, when I first saw the call for papers for the L.M. Montgomery and Reading conference, I knew I wanted to write about Montgomery's women readers (both in the books and of them), her women writers, and the transformation of one into the other.Then, one day during the writing process, I woke up with fragments of origin stories flickering through my mind: Mon-Daw-Min.A woman riding on the back of a great turtle.A whale materializing in a near-empty ocean.Also, Wonder Woman.
