![]() ![]() ![]() Leah lived on unceded Coast Salish territories in Vancouver for nearly ten years, during which time she and her dear friend Estlin McPhee ran R EVERB, a queer and anti-oppressive reading series. She is heavily influenced by the possibilities that queer and trans writers of colour bring to poetry, to our world, and the world to come. In 2016, Leah was awarded the Dayne Ogilvie Prize for LGBT Emerging Writers and For Your Own Good was named a Stonewall Honor Title by the American Library Association. Leah Horlick grew up as a settler on Treaty Six Territory & the homelands of the Métis in Saskatoon. She is the author of three collections of poems: "Moldovan Hotel" (Brick Books, 2022,) For Your Own Good(Caitlin Press, 2015), and Riot Lung (Thistledown Press, 2012), and writes frequently on themes of intimacy and violence. ![]()
