Émilie is a gust of air, often disguised as summer breeze. She discovers that what can be felt leaves, and what leaves is often impossible to get back. Thus, she tries to capture moments in her Moleskine notebook, before they become ineffable. Then she forgets them. After obtaining her degree in literature and  a master's degree in education at the University of Ottawa, Émilie undertook a bilingual doctorate program at the University of Alberta. Her research, conducted in a multi-lingual and multi-identity context concern the inherent complexities of French immersion and French in a minority setting. Émilie also teaches courses on communication, literacy, and social interactions at the multidisiplinary French department at the University of Alberta Saint John. Fragments is her first collection of poems.

Born in Florida, he studied French literature and theatre at Georgetown University in Washington, where he also carried out research on Dante for the philosophy department. There, he was awarded a prize by the French department for his creative and theoretical thesis on notions of freedom in art.  He was alo the recipient of an award for writing by the Alliance Française in 2006 . Published several times at Georgetown, as well as in some San Francisco-based reviews, his writing is associated with the automatistes of Québec; he was also an apprentice under the American poet, Carolyn Forché. After an internship with Valère Novarina and the Théâtre du Rêve, he left for France in 2010, where he finished his studies at Sciences-Po Paris.  In France, he is an instructor of literature and poetry at the secondary level.  He has also undertaken several theatre endeavours as actor, joining the company Théâtre d’images in 2011.  Residing in the Tarn department since the autumn of 2013, he is director of Les Écrits 9 and the theatre company La Sur/Vie, for whom he wrote the play, À la légère vers les cieux.  His book/poem, The Moment, was published in 2016 by Les Écrits 9.
