Hi! I'm Christina and I've been writing and publishing horror poetry for over 20 years. My recent book A Collection of Nightmares (Raw Dog Screaming Press, 2017) won the Bram Stoker Award and was nominated for the Elgin Award. Its followup, A Collection of Dreamscapes (Raw Dog Screaming Press, 2020) is slated for an April 2020 launch!

I also write Japanese short form poetry such as haiku and senryu, flash fiction, and paint in oil, watercolor, ink, and pastel. I love small poems and revel in writing scifaiku, horrorku, tanka, and cherita in themes of science fiction, horror, and fantasy. These were collected in a chapbook titled Astropoetry (Alban Lake Publishing, 2017) celebrating the beauty and mysteries of space. It was runner-up in the 2018 Elgin Awards.

My poetry, fiction, and art have appeared in numerous venues worldwide, receiving accolades such as the Jane Reichhold International Prize, nominations in the Rhysling Awards, the Dwarf Stars, the Elgin Awards, and honourable mentions in the Year's Best Fantasy and Horror, and the Best Horror of the Year.

Join me here to get sneak peeks into my current works in progress, unpublished paintings, poems, and more! :D
