About the author

Leila A. Fortier is a writer, artist, poet, and photographer currently residing on the remote island of Okinawa Japan. Her poetry is known to be a unique hybrid form in which her words are specially crafted into visual form and design, often superimposed over her own multi-medium forms of art, photography, and spoken accompaniment, lending to the full bodied expression and intensity of each piece.

Her belief in the multi-faceted, rich dimensions of inward and outward exploration is expressed passionately in her work that is profoundly emotional in its reverie for all life’s spiritual and physical experiences.

Her work has been published or is forthcoming in The Sage of Consciousness Literary Review, Damazine, Nefarious Ballerina, Oysters & Chocolate, Visions with Voices, DOPE Magazine and Einstein’s Pocket Watch among others. She has appeared in several books, anthologies, and publications including Treasured Poets of America, Satiated Sunrise, and A World of Love: Voices for Carmen. She is also the author of Metanoia's Revelation through iUniverse.
