Hi, I'm Shelby!

I'm a poet and creative soul from Ontario, Canada.
I write poetry spun with magic and I run my own online boutique.
On social media I share my original poems that I hand type on my antique Underwood typewriter from 1911. These one of a kind pieces can be ordered from my shop or you can join me on Ko-fi to get monthly poetry mail!
I love cats, antique things, and everything that autumn brings. When I'm not writing poetry, you'll often find me curled up with a book or journaling.
I'm grateful that you're here with me. Thank you for taking such great care of the paper pieces of my heart. xo Shelby
