She also existed as an aberration in the modern literary world: an artist almost solely focused on a single form (the short story), and one who eschewed promotion and never strayed far from her rural Ontario roots. This, too, serves as a kind of inspiration, as the novelist Sheila Heti notes [in a guest essay this week](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRoKHqaP0ToaHR0cHM6Ly93d3cubnl0aW1lcy5jb20vMjAyNC8wNS8xNS9vcGluaW9uL3doYXQtYWxpY2UtbXVucm8td291bGQtbmV2ZXItZG8uaHRtbD9jYW1wYWlnbl9pZD0zOSZlbWM9ZWRpdF90eV8yMDI0MDUxNiZpbnN0YW5jZV9pZD0xMjM1MTAmbmw9b3Bpbmlvbi10b2RheSZyZWdpX2lkPTc3Njc0OTUyJnNlZ21lbnRfaWQ9MTY2ODA4JnRlPTEmdXNlcl9pZD1hYTQ5MWVmN2YxZDk2NGU0OTc5ZmI3ODRlNzRlMDFkN1cDbnl0QgpmRJr1RWbYMUpbUht0cmlzdHJhbWJhbGR3aW45MEBnbWFpbC5jb21YBAAAAAM~).

Yet Munro, in her dedication to artistic rigor, still served as “a North Star for many writers and was someone I have always felt guided by,” Heti says. Munro’s writing career effectively ended when she [announced](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRoKHqaP0T5aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cubnl0aW1lcy5jb20vc2xpZGVzaG93LzIwMTMvMDcvMDEvYm9va3MvMjAxMzA3MDJNVU5STy9zLzIwMTMwNzAyTVVOUk8tc2xpZGUtMEpXMi5odG1sP2NhbXBhaWduX2lkPTM5JmVtYz1lZGl0X3R5XzIwMjQwNTE2Jmluc3RhbmNlX2lkPTEyMzUxMCZubD1vcGluaW9uLXRvZGF5JnJlZ2lfaWQ9Nzc2NzQ5NTImc2VnbWVudF9pZD0xNjY4MDgmdGU9MSZ1c2VyX2lkPWFhNDkxZWY3ZjFkOTY0ZTQ5NzlmYjc4NGU3NGUwMWQ3VwNueXRCCmZEmvVFZtgxSltSG3RyaXN0cmFtYmFsZHdpbjkwQGdtYWlsLmNvbVgEAAAAAw~~) her retirement in 2013, but many readers’ relationship with her is just beginning.
