It's nearly here!

Aphelion is at the printers! I continue to be amazed by the whole experience and remain hugely grateful to the folks at NeWest for their talent, kindness, and expertise.

A launch is in the works for Edmonton, followed by readings in Saskatchewan, Toronto, and B.C. in the autumn. I’ll also be flying to England this April to read at the Poetry in the Crypt series in London alongside Alan Brownjohn, which is a tremendous thrill! Aphelion features sections about both North America and Europe, specifically Canada and England (my two homes), and I feel so very fortunate to be able to launch the book in both places.

Lots on the go…but there are two extra hours of daylight bookending the day, and who knows, that could mean spring is around the corner. With it comes this great rush of new energy…
