Biography
Leah Horlick is a Canadian poet who won the Dayne Ogilvie Prize for lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender writers in 2016. She published Riot Lung in 2012, which was nominated for the ReLit Award for poetry and the Saskatchewan Book Award in 2013. Her second collection, For Your Own Good, released in 2015, was named a Stonewall Honour Book by the Stonewall Book Awards. The book emerged from her processing a deeply personal trauma: sexual assault by her first girlfriend after coming out as lesbian, and the scarcity of literature addressing same-sex assault.
Originally from Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Horlick studied at the University of Saskatchewan. She is now based in Vancouver, British Columbia, where she co-curates Reverb with Estlin McPhee, a reading series dedicated to LGBTQ+ writers. As a writer, Horlick works in poetry—a form that demands compression, image, and emotional precision. Born September 21, 1988, she is a Virgo, an earth sign associated with critical clarity and service. Her life-path number of 11 aligns with the intuitive visionary archetype, often drawn to social transformation and truth-telling.
