Burnt Toast

<p><strong>Kit Birks is a writer adventurer and mental health activist.</strong></p><p>She discovered poetry during her recovery from drug addiction in the summer of 2022. What began as a private way to process emotions make sense of her past and navigate her evolving reality soon became a way of life-a lifeline that helped her fall back in love with living.</p><p>Her debut poetry collection <em>Burnt Toast</em> follows this journey from hurting to becoming. It is raw honest and deeply human.</p><p>When Kit began sharing her poetry online she was overwhelmed by the response-strangers who saw pieces of themselves in her words. She believes that vulnerability and honesty are powerful forces for connection and healing.</p><p><em>Burnt Toast</em> is a love letter to anyone who's ever struggled-a reminder that we are never truly alone and that no matter how many pieces of toast you burn it's okay to try again ... because everyone burns toast. </p><p></p>
