Hey!

I’m Caden!

Welcome to my writing portfolio! Here, you'll find a diverse collection of my literary work, showcasing my passion for storytelling and exploration of various genres. Dive in and enjoy the journey through my creative world.

Who Am I?

I’m a Calgary-based emerging author.  I’m enrolled in the English Program at Mount Royal University, with a double minor in Political Science and Creative Writing. I am also a member of the Mount Royal Creative Writing Club, thankfully I’ve been able to be a judge for a handful of slam poetry competitions held by the club. I have a deep passion for writing, which I have always cherished in my life. I have found immense peace through writing, and I have absolutely found frustration; however, the concept of writing literature that impacts others is my greatest motivation.

“As for expressing nobody-but-yourself in words, that means working just a little harder than anybody who isn’t a poet can possibly imagine. Why? Because nothing is quite as easy as using words like somebody else. We all of us do exactly this nearly all of the time — and whenever we do it, we’re not poets.” ― E.E. Cummings

Discover the soundtrack to my creative process with the Spotify playlist that fuels my writing sessions. Carefully curated to balance focus and inspiration, this playlist features a blend of ambient tunes, instrumental tracks, and modern classics that help me stay immersed in my work. Dive into the music that accompanies my writing journey and find your own rhythm in the creative flow.
