Briana LenziWriting has been a passion for Briana ever since she was a small child, getting her first "official" nod for poetry skills on a grade-four report card. She's been capturing her thoughts and feelings in verse ever since, often finding herself mentallynarrating her own life in poetic form. After a particularly tumultuous chapter of life, she came to the realization that the crumbling of everything she knew was leading her to her own power-to her bravery and vulnerability, and to the place inside herself that could still stand in the face of tragedy and challenge. This collection of poems was born of that realization and the emotional rollercoaster that led her to it.

When Briana isn't writing, she enjoys painting and assisting in a variety of activities that encourage presence and connection. She currently lives in Cambridge, Ontario, with her two sons and their faithful dog, Rutabaga.
