Congratulations to @beyondtherese! Phantompains is on the 2022 Fred Cogswell Award longlist!

Phantompains is a visceral, imaginative collection exploring disability, grief and life by interweaving stark memories with dreamlike surrealism.

In search of a writer with a disability who would like to review Latif Askia Ba’s formidable book of poetry (which I highly recommend) —“The Machine Code of a Bleeding Moon” by @StillhousePress for @arcpoetry 🫀(writers living in Canada preferred)

[Therese @beyondtherese]

@aagurza The Machine Code of a Bleeding Moon by Brooklyn based poet, Latin Askia who lives with Choreic Cerebral Palsy. I think you will really love his work 🙏🏽

@temim @jaminlin Hi Temim! A fellow Visayan writer sent me this post and thought I might be a good fit.
Would be interested in joining 🙏🏽 used the folktales I was told as a child to process my feelings about becoming disabled. Check it out if you’re interested! https://t.co/a5212ptJPr

Can you believe I had to file disability discrimination court case against #DoFo Gov? It They me to have drivers license to renew Health Card online. We #blind people can't get a drivers license. Is that so hard to figure out? #accessibility #AODA #onHealth

[Therese @beyondtherese]

Thank you @ONArtsCouncil and my amazing publisher @bookhugpress , and @BrickBooks @arcpoetry for your support and belief in me 🙏🏽❤️‍🩹

[Ashley-Elizabeth Best @Ashley_E_Best]

@ValAssenza congratulations!!!

[Therese @beyondtherese]

@ParabolicOcelot you were so gracious when judging for the Merina Nemat award, this taught me how important it is to maintain the spirit of conviviality when doing these things 🙏🏽 : )

[Alicia Elliott - AND THEN SHE FELL out now! @WordsandGuitar]

A reminder to non-Indigenous folks: this week is going to be exhausting for a lot of Indigenous people with this new day of reconciliation. People will expect us to share our traumas so others can learn. This is emotional labor that's very difficult. Please be kind and patient.

[Jael Ealey Richardson @JaelRichardson]

You know what’s even better than buying an orange shirt - buying and reading books by Indigenous authors all year round.

[Therese @beyondtherese]

yes! looking forward to our conversation @festofauthors it as well @sawpoet 😀⚡️🙏🏽

[Charlie C Petch 🇺🇦 🇮🇪 🏳️‍⚧️ @sawpoet]

Really excited to be interviewed alongside @beyondtherese for the @festofauthors #TIFA2021 for The Body Politic around themes of disability, gender, humour and the poetics of it all. Such a great online festival lineup. Check out all the events! https://t.co/VG98e1qIXi

2:30 p.m. EST:
✨ MEDICINAL ARTS: Poetry of the Body

Medicine explores what a body does, art explores how it feels to be in one. Can poetry help organize the confusion of embodiment?
