Montgomery stares at her drawing board, trying to think of the best plot for her story. She glanced over at the kitchen table, noticing the front page of the newspaper. .

Lucy Maud Montgomery was born on November 30, 1874, in Clifton, New London on Prince Edward Island. She was raised in Canada on the island, just like Anne Shirley (one of her most popular characters). Her family lived with her grandparents; the Mac Neils. They ran the town post-office out of their home. Montgomery was a rather lonely person. Her mother, Clara Woolner Mac Neil died when she was only two of Tuberculosis in 1876 (Murphy). Her father, Hugh John Montgomery, married another woman soon after, and moved to Saskatchewan, leaving Montgomery with her elderly grandparents. Montgomery was always teased and criticized by aunts, uncles, and cousins and was therefore, never really accepted (Murphy). Although Montgomery's father was alive for the first twenty-six years of her life, she was virtually an orphan who was raised by her elderly grandparents. .
