Notes from the Ward is the new poetry collection by Steffi Tad-y, arriving September 2025 with Gordon Hill.DM us to request a review copy. 🫶🏼In Notes from the Ward, Tad-y explores bipolar disorder and psychosis through the lens of lived experience and poetic observation. These poems are stunning in their clarity and vulnerability—both a personal reckoning and a cultural intervention into how psychiatric illness is too often sensationalized and misunderstood. With grace and power, Tad-y invites readers into a space of radical empathy and self-recognition.About Steffi Tad-y:Born and raised in Manila, Philippines, Steffi Tad-y is a poet and writer based in the territories of the Musqueam, Squamish, and Tsleil-Waututh Nations (Vancouver, BC). Her chapbook Merienda (Rahila’s Ghost Press) was nominated for the 2021 bpNichol Chapbook Award, and her debut full-length collection From the Shoreline was published by Gordon Hill Press in 2022. Her work reflects on kinship, diasporic geographies, and formations of the mind.w/ @steffitaddashy @gordon_hill_press ...#poetry #poetrycollection #canlit #phillipines #fillipino #bipolar #psychosis #livingwithmentalillness #bookishcanadians #bookworm #booksbooksbooks #ireadcanadian #canadianliterature #poetrylover #canadianpoet #canadianpoetry #vancouverpoet #vancouverbc #vancouverart by @steffitaddashy

Love you, BC ⛰️What a privilege & deep, deep honour to have lived here. Even if I no longer do, I’m still learning & yearning (naks!) & dreaming of your trees, mountains, waters, stewards, & caretakers.Napakarami kong pagkukulang bilang isang manunulat, kaibigan, at ka-alyado. But I want to continue. I want to keep learning because of you & who you’ve led me to. Won’t even tag ‘em all. I’ll just dial 604 ❤️From the river to the sea, it’s LAND BACK FOREVER ✊🏽 by @steffitaddashy
