Community eChapbooks
Created and edited during my years as Poet Laureate of Cobourg (2019-2022), these four community eChapbooks brought together the work of more than 70 poets and artists. Three formed an annual Earth Day series celebrating poetry, art, nature, and connection, while Cobourg Present evolved throughout 2021 through monthly writing invitations inspired by place, memory, and community.
