1) I’m so grateful that Ox Lost, Snow Deep was so deeply read & felt by the jury of the Maxine Tynes Nova Scotia Poetry Award. This citation almost made me cry. Congratulations to Cory Lavender, who won the award, & to Annick MacAskill, also on the shortlist.

I am so happy that Ox Lost, Snow Deep has been getting some love! It’s my 6th book, and the first one that’s been on any short and longlists ever! That feels great in itself. 🐂❄️ @anvilpress.bsky.social

So glad to get these in the mail! Big thanks to @robmclennan.bsky.social and above/ground press for publishing my little chapbook, I Am So Calm. 14 poems for 5 bucks, not too shabby.
