I just read your bio and had no idea you were Cree! There are not many native writers so finding out you are is amazing. Do you live on a reservation? Do you speak Cree? I am very interested in Native American cultures so I would love to hear more about it. Love your work too btw! :)

ahhh, thanks!! my mum is Cree (as is everyone on her side of the fam w some Slavey and Ojibwe), but my dad is Welsh. i don't speak a lot of Cree, though. i know some words and phrases, like enough to get by but def not fluent. i'm a member of Swampy Cree First Nation, and moved back fairly recently to live with my grandma (kohkom).

i don't know too much about the culture, unfortunately. me and my mum moved away when i was about 8ish and lived mostly in cities (off Cree Ntn). so outside of knowing what we are, i didn't have much exposure to it, bar some holidays/family get-togethers when we'd go back to visit. i probs know more about Six Nations/Oneida from my step-dad than i do Cree, tragically!
