Corinne Leigh Clark is a writer of gothic stories that reflect the human condition in a historical context. In 2016, her short story, "A Ghost Story", was published in O Horrid Night: Chilling Holiday Tales for the Dark-Hearted, an anthology of dark Christmas stories. In 2018, an excerpt from her novel-in-progress won the Penguin Random House Canada Student Award for Fiction. She is a graduate of the creative writing program at the School of Continuing Studies, University of Toronto, and is a card-carrying member of The Ghost Club. She is disappointed that the mysterious light she photographed in Highgate Cemetery was a lens flare and not a ghost.
