Thank you to the medical admin person who, when I mentioned I wrote poetry about my experience navigating the medical system, not only asked me to write down where she could read it but today followed up to tell me specifically what she loved about it and asked if she could share it with others.💜

I have two poems in the upcoming issue of Room Magazine on the theme REST/UNREST. Pre-orders available now! roommagazine.com/product/rest...

This week I got back into a virtual room with my writing group that hasn’t met since June and last night I went to a community bonfire celebrating a lovely writing community I am a part of. Wow does it feel nice to celebrate successes and create simultaneously with other writers!

I’m so proud to share my essay “Depressive Wayfaring” is out now in the Canadian Mental Health Association magazing TRANSITION. Available for subscribers here: sk.cmha.ca/documents/tr... Two years ago I published my first poem and it has been a goal to appear in print in a Canadian publication!

I wrote a pantoum about mindfulness and I am glad it found a home with Kneebrace Press! kneebracepress.com/2025/04/15/h... The repetition and rearranging of this form felt like a reflection of the learning and relearning I experience while meditating.

I highly recommend you read this story by one of my forever friends Lia Matthew Brown instead of scrolling on your phone!

I am so pleased to share my poem “Illness Survival Skills” published this week by Kneebrace Press kneebracepress.com/2025/03/25/i... This poem will appear in my debut chapbook “Multimorbid” out this year with kith books.

Thank you @ms-trippingonair.bsky.social and @douglasmcintyre.bsky.social for the opportunity to read this excellent book! I was diagnosed with MS around the same time as Ardra and I loved learning more about her life through her funny and engaging writing style. www.goodreads.com/review/show/...

This is a heavy one. It is about wanting to be the best support possible to a sibling in crisis and the uncertainty of what that can mean moment to moment. This poem received an honourable mention from the League of Canadian Poets summer contest and I am proud of it. poets.ca/emergency-co...

My piece “MS Clinic” is in this beautiful issue of Feels! The launch was so lovely and Hannah, Sarah and Therese did an amazing job editing this work. I am honoured to be included with such amazing writers and artists! feelszine.com/products/dis...

Come see me next week at the Disability Holiday Market! Sunday December 8, 11am-5pm at Wychwood Barns 601 Christie Street. Visit my instagram @knots_and_clay to see the hats, earrings and ornaments I have been making!

It’s a writing from bed kind of week. Symptoms are flaring and I am resting, reading and writing into the question that popped into my head when I couldn’t sleep, “what does the universe smell like?”

Thrilled to receive an honourable mention in the League of Canadian Poets Summer Lovin’ Contest! Congratulations to the winners and all the honourable mentions! Read the winning poems here: poets.ca/summerlovin2...

I have been having a lot of disturbing dreams lately so I was very appreciative this morning that my brain gave me a dream where I was SO excited I was about to meet Kermit. I lost my mind when I found out his nephew Robin was coming too. (Never actually met them but the anticipation was amazing.)
