Send My Love to Anyone | Issue 11

It never ceases to amaze how a concept often bears within itself its own contradiction. Example: the word ‘revolution.’

Everyone's happy about their book until no one reads it

Season after season returns, departures / become muscle twitch, arrivals / the necessity of being and each layer / a testament to the way we react / to the world we are given.

I’ve had a serious bout of writer’s block for the past year, and I’m finally excited to be writing again.

I wanted to write a story in which a Southern Ontario small town was the main character.

Am I underappreciating, neglecting, other parts of the garden because I am admiring the zinnias, calendula and glads?

The first memory is trying to write a little story to be made into a book. Grade 5. Only Chantal Theoret finished one, and I remember being very envious.

the year is unknown and we are running / through alleyways.

One thing I don't miss is chatting with someone at a literary event while they look around the room for someone better to talk to.

The only life I’m interested in begins and ends with my body.
