Since 2021 I’ve been thrilled to work online with people from around the world who are learning powerful writing techniques with the irrepressible Nina Wise. I’m grateful to my “pandemic friends” who show up in zoom rooms for real human connection, and I’m feeling joyfully motivated to keep using the new skills we’re learning together.

Lea-Ann Dorval painted this delicate cover while working alone in the wilderness in central Yukon. This 10th collection is a compilation of moments from a year of upheaval. Available on Amazon as a paperback.
I am feeling so incredibly lucky to spend intermittent Saturdays inspired by the vibrant Joanna (at 91) and her sidekick Lydia… Zoom has made it possible for her students from around the world to show up for her wise exhortations and laughter. Anyone who needs a new way to cope with despair and love for our humanity and our planet may want to check out her amazing body of work.
Joyce Majiski made a striking cover for this collection, which is full of moments that point to how we’re here and now. Available on Amazon as a paperback or Kindle.
I’m grateful to have spent five days at the amazing Hollyhock centre, learning from Rebekka Goldsmith and Khari Wendell McClelland and the participants in our Create to Liberate group! Lots of deep listening to ocean, cedars, song, other people and my own heart.
Many thanks to Janelle Hardy for the devotional painting that graces the cover of this 8th poetry collection. I’m very grateful for the ways these poems get to find their way into my days… may they enrich your living too. Feel free to buy or review Deeply Free.
Yukon artist Justien Wood captured the title so beautifully on the cover of the 5th collection, Prickly Kindness.
The 7th collection admits how often I don’t know what’s going on! I hope you enjoy Frankly Clueless.
Thanks to Bee Smyth for her talented Yukon skyscapes and especially for the cover of the third collection, Grunt Work: Sounds of Everyday Living.
More gratitude, this time to my dear friend Lea-Ann Dorval for a sensual and dreamy cover for the 4th collection, Thirsty Bloom.
