Twenty-seven writers from across Canada have been longlisted for the 2024 CBC Poetry Prize. Northern Childhood, a cycle of ten poems, is on the list. You’ll find my CBC profile page here which includes a poem and photo. The longlist was selected from more than 2,700 entries!
Five finalists will be chosen, and CBC will announce the shortlist on November 14th. (Update: I was one of the five finalists on the shortlist and my ten poems were published by CBC Books.)


Congratulations, Eleonore, on this wonderful news!!! I’m thrilled for you and looking forward to reading these poems myself. Hooray!
