this is arriving
arriving is a beautifully curated art book of poetry and photography inspired by water. But like all things, it’s what’s underneath the water that the book is really about.
This book came to life in partnership with my husband Kamil Bialous whose photographs give the visual experience to my writing.
The title arriving came out of something I found myself saying to people when they reached a new place in their growth — “you’ve arrived.” It’s in this moment of arriving where we are suspended, still, whole. Then, as quickly as we arrived, we are invited to begin again.
This book is an expression of what’s possible when we are in the practice of arriving. May this book bring you deeper into who you are, to your wholeness.
arriving is 41 years in the making of a dream coming to life. Thank you for being here for this moment of arrival.
giving back
$10 from every book purchased is being donated to RAVEN Trust, a non-profit whose mission I care deeply about. RAVEN raises legal defence funds to assist Indigenous Peoples who enforce their rights and title to protect their traditional territories. It’s time for them to arrive. Thank you for supporting their important work.

“Your book is just magnificent. I love everything about it. Your words accompanied by Kam’s photos is like you mention, a piece of art. I’m thrilled for you and admire your courage because it takes a lot of courage to put something so intimate into the world. Just beautiful.”
Jacinthe Boulanger
