About the Author

Ellise Ramos is a writer. She lives with an immortal cat, Sharptooth and when she's not drowning in books, she's wrestling with her son, Johan. Bipolar Disorder I, PTSD and ADHD are amongst the top on her diagnosis hit list. Thus, she is an advocate for mental health awareness and documents her struggles in her blog, bipolarandmotherhood.ca. She has been published in various literary magazines, such as The Malahat Review. You can see a list of her publications on her site, elliseramos.ca. When she's not obsessing over a new hobby, she is facilitating writing workshops for the Writers Collective of Canada, googling everything, inhaling science fiction and true crime documentaries, and going on Wikipedia binges. Her goal is to create space for others to transform silence into story, to activate community and movement-to help those that are often marginalized and overlooked find strength in their voice. For her, writing is form of resistance: a way of remembering, of insisting on humanity, of refusing erasure for all words, when true, speak truth to power.
