Hi, I'm Maria

I'm a poet and creative soul. I've shared over 200 poems with the world, many in literary journals like Contemporary Verse 2, Queen's Quarterly, and Canadian Literature. Over the last three years, I've fostered and developed a robust readership online and in my community,

I host a writing table, Gather, for other creatives dedicated to improving their craft and searching for creative community.

I was born in Durango, Mexico but now I call Toronto, Canada home.
