Angeline Schellenberg is the author of Tell Them It Was Mozart (Brick Books, 2016), linked poems about raising autistic children; it won the Lansdowne Prize for Poetry and Eileen McTavish Sykes Award for Best First Book, and was a finalist for the Relit Award. Her second collection, Fields of Light and Stone (University of Alberta Press, 2020), elegies for her Mennonite grandparents, was shortlisted for the 2022 KOBZAR Book Award. Recipient of the 2017 John Hirsch Award for Most Promising Manitoba writer, Angeline has published chapbooks with The Alfred Gustav, Kalamalka, Dancing Girl, and Jack Pine Presses. Her fiction was selected for Exposition Review’s Flash 405 contest and Best Microfiction 2024. Angeline is a treasure-hunter: thrifting, mudlarking, birding—and in her practice as a contemplative spiritual director—listening in people’s stories for shimmers of the Divine. She is assistant wedding photographer for Anthony Mark Photography and the punny host of Speaking Crow—Winnipeg’s longest-running poetry open mic. Angeline lives on Treaty 1 Territory with her husband, adult children, rescue dog, and not nearly enough plants. She enjoys watching Korean dramas and eating other people’s baking. Angeline recently launched Mondegreen Riffs (At Bay Press, 2024), one of CBC Books’ fall 2024 poetry collections to watch for.
