Daniel G Scott, has just released Travels with Athóma (Aeolus House) and has previously published Aftertime (2019) and Voicing Suicide (2020), an anthology of suicide poems he edited, as well as [klee-shays] undone, volume one (2020). His other publications include four books of poetry, three chapbooks and individual poems in journals, anthologies and chapbooks as well as numerous academic publications. In 1984, he won a one-act playwriting competition in New Brunswick. He is past Artistic Director of Planet Earth Poetry and producer for Poets Caravan, and can say poetry has saved his life more than once.
Here is the Poet's Caravan link I mentioned, a very cool project by Planet Earth Poetry that highlights the rich cultural landscape of Southern Vancouver Island. Each poet is represented by a pin on Google Earth of a spot meaningful to them – somewhere they like to do their writing or find particularly inspiring.
