Wishing the happiest of birthdays to my partner/best friend/genuinely one of the best people on the entire planet. I can't wait to see what 26 holds for you ❤❤

Hey friends! My poetry collection will be out by March!! Could you do me a favour and request that your local library acquire a copy? The ISBN is 9781928171973 and all other information can be found here: https://gordonhillpress.com/collections/titles/products/i-know-something-you-dont-know-preorder For the Calgary Public library, the link is through this page: https://calgarylibrary.ca/contact-us/ It's totally free to request books, it's really cool because you get control over what your library stocks, and it would be amazing for my book to be accessible ❤️ You can request up to five titles per month at the CPL so you can decide what kinds of materials you think your library should have available and make your voice heard!

I saw this doll in my neighborhood a few months ago and I'm still spooked #exorcismneeded

Congratulations to @kat_heger & co at @nodmagazine on a lovely launch today 💕 I can't wait to sit down and enjoy issue 25

Just posted this on my story, but BIG NEWS!! 🎊

Mama cat helps with Victorian lit sometimes

Thank you so much to @conyerclayton and Canthius magazine for this thoughtful and generous review of Ladybird, Ladybird ❤ I'm honored to have my little book read with such care and to be reviewed alongside @angelacaravan 's chapbook from @postghostpress (I'm in SUCH GOOD COMPANY).

I feel very lucky to have helped @alyciap_ launch her beautiful book "Faces that fled the wind" in Calgary this past weekend. @laura.schoenberg sang some gorgeous songs that have been stuck in my head all week. This is a book you're definitely going to want to read ❤ get your hands on a copy from @shelflifebooks or @boaat_press

You can now pre-order my first poetry collection in a bundle with two other great books from #gordonhillpress including new titles from @mikechaulk, Matthew Tomkinson, and Geoffrey Morrison ❤❤ you will have my eternal love and admiration if you pre-order! Poems in this collection have been lucky enough to appear in @roommagazine @eventmags @prairiefiremag @lrcmag @prisminternational @cv2magazine and @fillingstationmagazine

This Saturday! Come to @shelflifebooks for the launch of "Faces that Fled the Wind" by @alyciap_ from @boaat_press ❤ I'll be reading with Alycia and Laura Schoenberg at 2pm.

This past week had been HARD for so many reasons, but I'm taking a minute to love fall walks, this dorky Harry Potter cup, my friends, my partner and my family who have brought snacks, and love, and chai lattes, and have shown up more than I could ever have asked for 💖🍂

I'm actually so excited about this issue. Read the call for submissions and send us some writing about ritual by December 31st! #Repost @fillingstationmagazine (@get_repost) ・・・ From the grandest of religious ceremonies to the most humdrum of daily routines, “ritual” serves an important function in all of our lives, if only because the actions we regularly repeat come to define us. Be it magical working, enacted psychodrama, obsessive tick, or habit of hygiene, we are deeply moved by set patterns of behavior treated with special significance. filling Station wants to know what about ritual moves you! Do you (or your characters) have pre-game good luck rituals? Cultish mind control behaviours? Calming self-care routines? New employee initiation rites? And how does ritual manifest in experimental writing? - 🛀🙏🧘‍♀️🔥🧙‍♀️ - The editors at filling Station welcome submissions of experimental poetry, prose, creative nonfiction, and reviews of books dealing with ritual in any of it its forms. This may include work with ritualistic subject matter, or which incorporates ritual into the process of its creation. We specifically encourage submissions from creators who identify with female or gender non-conforming, BIPOC, LGBTQ+, disabled, immigrant, impoverished, survivor, or other marginalized communities. -🌈⭐🎨- Send your original unpublished work through Submittable with the word RITUAL in the title and cover letter by December 31, 2019 to be considered for inclusion in Issue 74. General submissions will remain open during this time. https://fillingstation.submittable.com/submit 📚🖍 ✏✏ Detailed submissions guidelines can be found on our website: http://www.fillingstation.ca/submit✏✏

My whole heart ❤

This time last year I was at the @banffcentre for the emerging writers intensive and I wrote this poem about a bird I saw. It found a home at @grainlitmag (one of my all time favourite publications) and I just got my contributor copies in the mail. Perfect timing and all kinds of October feelings 💕

My poem "Hair" was recently published in Boned: a collection of skeletal writings. It has changed a lot since it was accepted, but I still like it and it's still one of my most personal pieces. Have a look at the rest if you feel like reading about hair and bees 🐝🍯 https://bonedstories.wordpress.com/2019/10/01/hair-an-elegy/
