It continues.

Upcoming:
  • My flash fiction "The Redcoats Are Coming" has been accepted for the Done in a Hundred anthology by NUNUM. It is about the kidnapping of Indigenous children by the RCMP.

  • My poem "Original Sin" is forthcoming in Arc Poetry Magazine.
  • Book reviews for VenCo by Cherie Dimaline, Everything You Dream is Real by Lisa De Nikolits, and Moon Boots: The Chronicles of a Country Crooner by Lorenz Peter are forthcoming on Carousel Magazine's Blog.


Now available:
  • "The Ghosts of Forests Past" has been published by Solarpunk Magazine
  • My short story "Monkey Business" and my poems “Anirniliit: Those Which Breathe,” “Nuliajuk’s Promise,” and “Seasons of the Nattiq” are now available at Yellow Medicine Review


I recently realized that my poem "In Slipstream" is viewable for free at Augur Magazine.

I did not get the residency at Banff this year, but I'll apply again next year.

I've applied for the graduate program at Simon Fraser University's The Writers Studio. I'm not sure when I'll hear back. I was accepted before but withdrew because I'd won the Yosef Wosk Fellowship at the Vancouver Manuscript Intensive. Maybe they'll accept me again.

I have also applied to become an editor for a speculative fiction magazine. It doesn't pay, but I think the experience will be very educational and will also help get my name out there in the SpecFic world.

I am developing stories and artwork for the IMPACT23 Festival. I'll be working with Bangishimo and with Jordan M. Burns of Third Wheel Theatre Co. on the theme of Monsters.

After I got home from my vacation in Costa Rica in April, I ground to a halt in continuing my novel. I'm pleased to say that I'm back in the saddle and have passed the 77,000-word mark. I'm finally working on the climactic moments of the story. Thanks to the Waterloo Region Arts Fund for their support!

This fall, I will be reading at Book Fest, sponsored by the KW Writers Alliance. Details to come.

Here I am reading a couple of stories for Indigenous People's Day last month:
