Come see me between 1-3pm at my very favourite bookstore in the world, Russell Books! I'll be signing books and handing out cookies.  If you follow me on social media, you know I'm an avid baker (and obsessive Great British Bake Off fan) so I'm pretty serious about my cookies. Even if you have no interest in poetry, the cookies alone will be worth the trip, I promise! 

Step out of the ordinary and onto the water.

Writing The River is an immersive 60 to 90 minute guided writing and paddling experience that invites you to slow down, listen deeply, and write in conversation with the river. Led by award-winning poets Zoe Dickinson and Heidi Sander, this unique event weaves together a guided canoe/kayak journey, reflective writing prompts, and intimate community sharing.

I'm so excited to meet some of my press-mates in person, not to mention the amazing team at Guernica! Come see us at Supermarket: 268 Augusta Ave, Toronto, ON. 

Come celebrate National Poetry Month with me, Frances Boyle, and Margo LaPierre! We'll be reading at Perfect Books, 258A Elgin St, Ottawa, ON. CLICK HERE to get your free tickets! 

I can't consider my book to be fully launched until it's had its maiden voyage at Planet Earth Poetry. Staff Picks for Invertebrates wouldn't exist today without PEP's incredible community of poets and poetry-lovers. This event is very dear to my heart. Please come, and bring a poem for PEP's famous all-poetry open mic! More info to come on the PEP website.

Remarkable writers, gathered in the spirit of Denman Island.

This year’s Festival brings together an extraordinary collection of writers for a weekend of readings, conversations, and literary discovery shaped by the intimacy, beauty, and quiet attentiveness of island life. 

I am SO excited to be one of the featured authors this year!
