It’s the Last Day to Vote for Minotaur in the Aurora Awards!
Time seems to move so quickly these days. It’s hard to believe that voting for the Prix Aurora Awards is today! It’s been an honour to have my novel Minotaur nominated for Best YA Novel. I’ve never been nominated for a Prix Aurora Award, so this has been such a lovely and incredible experience for me. The fact that Minotaur has resonated with so many others is a true joy. To think that my…

Disability Pride and Why It Matters
As readers of this blog know, I was diagnosed with relapse and remitting multiple sclerosis and I was born with spastic cerebral palsy. I’ve never known what it’s like not to be disabled. In school, I had a teacher’s aide named Ms. Darch that came with me to all of my classes for elementary and middle-school and up to grade eight. I also had a different teachers aid for my first year of high…

Pixies Marsaille Tarot - A Deck Review
I still remember the first time I held a Tarot de Marseille. I love the mystery of the TdM, and the fact that no one can really pinpoint how it all came together. It was like holding a piece of history. I didn’t know what the cards were trying to tell me at first, but their meaning became clearer the longer I sat with the cards. I had the same reaction to The Rider-Waite Smith Tarot. The fact…

I Am Not a Fucking Unicorn - A Poem
I am not a fucking unicorn. How I wish I were one; My horn would be an everlasting source of magic most pure. I would be able to cure myself, not that I would have gotten sick in the first place. It just simply wouldn’t have happened, but I am not a fucking unicorn. Telling me that I must be more positive, I didn’t need to take my medication, that I must embrace joy, so that I can will…

Disability Pride and Why It Matters to Me
As readers of this blog know, I was born with spastic cerebral palsy and I was diagnosed with relapse and remitting multiple sclerosis in 2014. I’ve never known what it’s like not to be disabled. In school, I had a teacher’s aide named Ms. Darch that came with me to all of my classes for elementary and middle-school and up to grade eight. I also had a different teachers aid for my first year of…

Who Are You in the Labyrinth? - Be A Character In My New Book!
Who wants to be a character in my new work in progress? It’s the second book in the Minotaur series that I’m tentatively calling Theseus. The labyrinth is full of so many different people and I’m travelling to a different part of the labyrinth this time around. I have no idea what Sunita, Dominic and Janice are going to encounter, but I know where I want them to get to. When I wrote Minotaur, I…

The Aurora is a Spark
It’s hard to believe how fast time goes. Back in April, my novel Minotaur was nominated for a Prix Aurora Award and now here we are in July and voting is almost done. It’s been kind of like a heady dream and the entire experience has been so wonderful. Oddly, being nominated was the motivation that I needed. When I had finished writing Minotaur, I didn’t have any plans for a sequel, yet there…

Just As I Am – A Poem
Prayer Flags, Acrylic on Canvas by Jamieson Wolf When I was old enough to realize that my body was disabled, I prayed to God to make me into someone else, and to take away what made me different. When I realized that I was gay, I prayed to God harder than before forcing my mind to contort itself into something that I wasn’t all in order to fit in with a world that viewed me…

The Bonestone and Earthflesh Tarot: The Reawakening – A Deck Review
Of course, I knew about The Bonestone and Earthflesh Tarot when it first came out. It was independently released and a very limited printing and I just remember people being so thrilled to have snagged a copy of the deck. I hadn’t been lucky enough to do so and the deck kind of fell off my radar until I learned that the deck was being re-released and published by Lewellen and Blue Angel. I…

Waling the Desert Sands - A Poem
When we found each other, I had been wandering the desert for far too long. My skin had become chapped by the wind that whipped around me, a barrier built by hate from others who didn’t care to understand me and from myself, all their words turned inward against me. When I saw you for the first time, your face visible through the wind I thought it was some kind of mirage, or that…

Glass Magpies – A Poem
I gather letters to myself like a magpie. They are shiny and sparkling and I need to hold light right now. As I gather them up, the light draws me inward so that I can look at myself, and I can really see myself and who I am without wondering what layer to make people comfortable. These pieces of glass hold onto the light, making them pulse and shine. The letters are written in…

In the Company of Elivra
The Flow of the Water – Painting by Jamieson Wolf I am always fascinated by the way that my body changes. Max Shadow has been active lately. For over a year, I’ve had trouble dressing myself. My leg muscles have been incredibly tight. I haven’t been able to raise my right leg enough to put my clothes on. At first, the muscles just hurt when I tried to pull my clothes on, but eventually, I could…

Tarot Chimera by Nitasia Roland and art by Odilon Redon
I saw the Tarot Chimera in a video deck review by The Hermit’s Cave (which can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bNgJl9mCgDY&t=770s ) and was immediately smitten. I loved the designs, the quiet play of light and dark, the drawings that were at once arresting and intriguing. For a lot of the cards, they reflected the emotion or intent, even if it didn’t contain the symbolism of each…

Come Read in the Dark
It still boggles my mind with excitement that Minotaur is an Aurora Award nominee. It’s all kinds of wonderful that the book has been recognized this way and I’m just glad that people are enjoying it. It’s even got some reviews on Amazon which is lovely. It took a lot for me to write that book, so having Minotaur nominated for an Aurora Award is incredible. If you want a chance to read Minotaur…

Thirteen Years to Tomorrow - A Poem
I find myself here every year, standing by the same pool of water wondering what the new cycle will bring. It’s been an honour to watch myself grow into who I am, the reflection of me rippled by the water. There was a part of me that thought I would beat this disease that lives within me and that I would find a way past all of it, break through the wall into the light of a new…

Mercutio by Kate Heartfield – A Book Review
The first Shakespeare play that I ever read was Romeo and Juliet. Like a lot of other people, I read it in high school. It opened up a whole world for me, full of true love and tragedy, hope and solace. I fell in love with Romeo and Juliet as they fell in love, but it was Mercutio that held the light for me. I read and re-read that tragedy multiple times and it was always Mercutio that leapt off…
