Mockler & me
My admiration for Kathryn Mockler is huge—as a writer, editor, community-builder, activist, teacher, human being—the privilege to know & trust her as a colleague and friend. An intimate. Such care. She’s one of those very few people in a life who has indelibly informed and changed me, so that I cannot imagine a life without her. Add lifesaver to the list. No one makes me laugh out loud like The Mockler.
This Tuesday, we bask in our friendship, reading our work to each other & you. Join us.

She’s good in bed.

At your local independent & request at your library home branch.
Get her at Asterism Books & knife | fork | book.
36 hours































Jun 3 & 4 2024. A terrace reading among friends in Montreal celebrating she (a 65th birthday gift to myself). A living room reading in Kingston hosted by Sadiqa de Meijer where I found my fearless voice in the work (and saw the season’s first firefly near the train tracks). Priceless, all of it. Many thanks. Such good fortune.
