Lynda Ellestad is a former Calgarian who has made Kitchener, Ontario, her home for the past 34 years. With a passion for storytelling that has spanned her lifetime, she has embraced various roles, including editor, copywriter, and author. Her memoir, Walking Home, reflects her extensive exploration of the concept of home, inspired by a 127 km trek along the Guelph to Goderich Rail Trail that she undertook with her husband, Doug Wilson, in June 2014. In addition to her memoir (written under the name Wilson), Lynda is also the author of Hidden, a novel she has long aspired to write. Together, she and Doug enjoy life surrounded by their four children, three of whom live nearby, and their three remarkable grandchildren.
