Honoured to be nestled in the pages of the second @gatherpoets anthology, “for everyone out there crossing bold and gutsy thresholds.” Such a beautiful collection of poems and poets. by @helenbillett

Matriculation ceremony today to mark the formal admission of the MFA ‘28 students to the University of King’s College.

Recited the oath in Latin and signed the register they have been keeping for two centuries. (Loved the marbled endpapers.)

Afterward, we lunched at the President’s Lodge - a memorable way to begin this @ukcmfa journey. by @helenbillett

New learning-level unlocked!
I’m back at school pursuing a Master of Fine Arts (MFA) in Fiction at the University of King’s College.
I’m in Halifax now for the first residency—even staying in residence!
