Erin Alladin

Erin Alladin, poet

Erin Alladin grew up in North Bay and Corbeil, Ontario, where her family did such charming old-fashioned things as tap maple trees, make patchwork quilts, and know wildflowers by name. Lured by literary grandeur, she wandered off the Canadian Shield and became the Associate Editor of Pajama Press in Toronto, but the woods is always calling to her. To placate her need for growing things, Erin founded Toronto’s Garden@Kimbourne Community Permaculture Project. She also writes obsessively about roots—physical, metaphorical, and usually both at once.

Though melancholic and searching, Erin Alladin’s words also breathe a lovely breath of romance onto the page. See for yourself in her poems, The Bus North, Canadian Shield, Cycle, and The Winter and I.
