Grateful & honoured by this beautiful praise for In the Blueprint of Her Iris from multi-award-winning poet and novelist Catherine Graham.

Ty to all who've purchased this book. Poetry by Vikki C. & exquisite art by @rfredekenter.bsky.social. Available from @icefloepress.bsky.social. Link below 💙
Praise for In the Blueprint of Her Iris Dreamy, hypnotic and musically driven, the poems from In the Blueprint of Her Iris unfold and release with lush transformation. Accompanied by Robert Frede Kenter’s evocative art, these collaborations complement and enrich one another. Charged and reaching, they move through liminal spaces and beyond, creating an immersive experience for readers to dwell in. ”Duplicity in every naked frame.”Delicate yet weighty, these poems and images touch light. “How I am obliged to hunt for something that outruns me.” — Catherine Graham (Put Flowers Around Us & Pretend We’re Dead)

It's never an easy road getting to this place. This book received a lot of rejections until I took it back and rewrote it. I'm a better writer for it and the book is a better book. Comes out Nov. 4 of this year. I hope you all like it.
