Seagift 2022

Seagift 2022 is a collection of stories and poems that circle the theme of joy. This collection moves from joy-riding the streets of Armadale to the toothless grin of a baby to the joy of learning another language. Many of these stories and poems approach joy from the angle of sorrow, anger, or heartbreak. There is also joy in answered prayer, new beginnings, and even in uncertain endings. Featuring the work of both emerging and established writers: Alchenny Agyputri, Jackson Black, Jillian Bretto, Alison Dench, Jake Dennis, Namloyak Dhungser, Stephanie Felix, Hor Shide Gyatso, Alexandra Justinico, Lakshmi Bhatt Kanchi, Maya Krayneva, Ella Kurz, Andrew Lansdown, Ben Lee, Natalie Leitao, Elizabeth Lewis, Miriam Wei Wei Lo, Sam Mitchell, Mike Randall, T. C. Shelley, and Melinda Tognini. Seagift 2022 is an initiative of the Sheridan Institute Creative Writing program and includes work by students, graduates, and staff as well as contributions from the wider writing community.
