Hi everyone! My name is Denise. I’ve been accepted into the MFA in Creative Writing program at the University of Guelph 🇨🇦
I’m incredibly grateful for this opportunity, but I need support to make it possible financially.
✨ Why should you support my writing journey? ✨
I write the dialogue in my short stories in a traditional Vincentian way of speaking (“Vincy dialect”), and I’m committed to creating representation for current and future generations of Vincentians.
My writing is deeply inspired by folk tales and traditional knowledge, and I believe these stories deserve to be preserved and shared widely. This support would help me bring Caribbean stories to a global audience and keep those narratives alive through my work.
If you’re able to contribute or share my GoFundMe (link in bio), it would mean so much. 💙

you literally can't tell me that the point of life isn't to love your friends and appreciate nature
infinite thanks to everyone who made me so, so happy this week
