Author: Keith Chater

Keith Chater came to Canada from England as a teenager to attend Victoria College in the University of Toronto. He has become an avid Canadian, but still manages to maintain a peculiarly British sense of humour. Having earned a Ph.D in Modern History from Queen’s University, he lectured for a time at the University of the West Indies, after which our erstwhile doctor retuned home and entered the banking profession .But, being a good Presbyterian, he disapproved of lending money for the purchase of fur coats and other frivolities, and moved on to the design and teaching of courses in his newly adopted profession. Early retirement having been thrust upon him, our author has settled down to become what he always wanted to be — a writer of comic fiction. With the support of his long-time writing group, “Tonight, It’s My Turn’ is his fourth novel. Come to think of it, if you don’t like the ending, it was Bev and Tim who persuaded him to change it. His second novel, ‘Henry In Pieces, ’ was also published by Xlibris. Two other manuscripts, one centering on family ties and the other on what happens as the ties of fellowship begin to unravel in a church’s congregation, currently languish in literary limbo. He needs to be braver about publishing them. A murder mystery set at an all-inclusive tropical hotel is currently emerging from the author’s rather fevered brain and he is quite willing to endure a visit to an appropriate setting for the purposes of research. Accuracy is crucial, after all.
