Last week, in the midst of all the anxiety and waiting and life stuff, I received some very good news… a grant from the Canada Council for the Arts which I applied for last summer was approved! What this means essentially is that I’ve been awarded enough money that my basic living costs will be covered for about a year while I work on a new manuscript of poetry. This is…. life-changing, to say the least! Despite all the complicated feelings I’m having around receiving this gift, I am so wildly grateful to be honoured with money (aka, time) to make my art.
