Can you see me swooning? I am thrilled to publish my first book of non-fiction with Gaspereau Press. Set against the backdrop of a wilderness canoe trip, Pivot Point explores the changing nature of friendship. This nine-day journey poses challenges beyond bug bites, rain squalls, and fatigue, as a group of friends set out to reconnect and re-examine their lives. A meditation on the importance of wild spaces and our deep connection to others, Pivot Point blends poetry with non-fiction to create a compelling travelogue and portrait of lifelong friendship.

The lovely Emma Fitzgerald will be creating original illustrations to accompany the book.
