KP Hays is a Canadian author and poet, whose writing focuses on trauma, healing, and motherhood. Her work is deeply personal, sometimes universal, and forever passionate.
K has always had an affinity for writing pretty words and delivering mic-drop one-liners, so she teaches English Language Arts during the day, and writes her heart out at night (and sometimes into the early morning too). She first delved into poetry as a pre-teen, often returning to writing in times of hardship and healing — a journey she’s still on today.
K lives in Alberta with her husband, three littles, and various cats, and can often be found reading, playing board games, and making things out of yarn.
Her debut poetry collection, therapy, is a culmination of decades of trauma, a festering mother wound, hard work, and deep passion, and she's so excited to have it out in the world.
