Author of the novel, Shot-Blue (Coach House 2017).

I grew up playing boys' hockey across southern Ontario and went to Harvard on scholarship to play goal. After racking up concussions, had to quit the ice, took to studying poetry, did a Master's at U of T, then returned home to play in some bands and make albums. From thirteen to twenty-three, I apprenticed in summer with a carpenter on a remote lake in northern Ontario. We built cabins and docks. At night I fished for pickerel.

My writing and photographs have appeared in the NewYorker.com, BOMB, N+1, Music & Literature, and Vice, among other places.

Currently an Affiliate at the Center for Expanded Poetics and an online editor at Music and Literature Magazine. ...more
