Poems about life and death, modern family life, and hope From the author of Carry On Dancing and Leap. Heather Grace Stewart (heathergracestewart.me) is an author, poet, and photographer. Her poems have appeared in Canadian literary journals, international anthologies (Routes, Babylon Burning) e-zines, and the British small presses. Where the Butterflies Go is her first complete collection. Reviews:"Whirlwind poetry that never hesitates. . . always delightful and rarely what you expect. We need poetry like this." -Sally Evans, poet and Editor, Poetry Scotland. "Thanks to an exhilarating directness and a worked-for simplicity of language, not to mention a nicely self-deprecating sense of humour on occasion, this is a book full of sharply drawn images, honest poignancy and frank admissions."-Poet-Journalist Tom Phillips. "These poems have a humanity, a goodness, an almost other-worldliness about them." -Tony Lewis-Jones, Author of Anytime and nine other collections.
Heather Grace Stewart is a Canadian magazine writer, author and poet. Her first poem was published in her school newsletter when she was five, and she's been hooked on writing ever since.
With the release of Three Spaces, her 2013 collection of poetry, stories, and photography, reviewers are calling her work 'modern' and 'unconventional;' the writing 'tender' 'heartfelt' and 'vulnerable.'
Her third poetry collection, Carry On Dancing (Winter Goose Publishing, March 2012) has been reviewed as 'brave, personal and eloquent poems.' She is also the author of the poetry collections 'Leap' and 'Where the Butterflies Go,' two non-fiction books for youth, and a book of children's poetry, The Groovy Granny.
Born in Ottawa, she lives with her husband and daughter near Montreal.
In her free time, she loves to take photos, scrapbook, cartoon, inline skate, dance like nobody's watching, and eat Swedish Berries -- usually not at the same time.
