I am a writer (fiction, poetry, song), editor and translator. I was born in Montreal, grew up in Western Canada (Edmonton then Vancouver), and later returned to Montreal for graduate work in Linguistics and Neurophysiology.
Since 2021, I have been working on my PhD in the Program for Writers at the University of Illinois at Chicago where I teach literature, first-year composition, and creative writing.

If you come out to my events, please consider contributing what you might pay for a cup of coffee (or maybe $2 to $5) for each event you attend. All my events are run by donations because I know that not everyone has the same financial resources. If you can afford it, please consider contributing more; if your money is tighter, I understand.
Thanks so much and I hope to see you soon!
Gordon
