Massive aroha to everyone who joined us yesterday, for the online launch of In the shape of his hand lay a river.

Thank you to Michelle Elvy, Vaughan Rapatahana and Rushi Vyas for your support with the launch, for sharing your thoughts on grief, and for reading some of the poems alongside me.

Within the month, Elixir & Star Press are hoping to post the video recording of the launch, for those who missed it live. It was an incredibly moving and shared kōrero around grief, suicide bereavement, and creative practice when grieving, with readings from the book.

Elixir & Star Press have pre-sold over half the books already, so if you’d like a copy of this limited edition collection, please get in touch with Elixir & Star Press at: books-elixirandstar@proton.me
