Paulette is the author of three books and the recipient of a number of wards including the Milton Acorn Memorial People’s Poetry Award (1994) and the CBC Alberta Anthology (1998). Talon was shortlisted for the 1999 Canadian Literary Awards, the Alberta Writers’ Guild;d Best Novel; Award (2003) and the Starburst Award (2003). She lives in Jasper with her family and continues to write and teach.
