About me

Gender Male
Location Canada
Introduction Hello, I am Jarrett. I love making videos and taking photographs for the sake of art and creativity. I am considering film school of some sort, because I would love to get into that industry. Reading is also a passion. Anything Canadian or unconventional. The Watch That Ends The Night is a fave Canlit, since a Tragically Hip song is based around it. I am a writer. I like writing ekphrasis and fragmented memoirs, and poetry. As well as articles, reviews and historical documentary. I'm a songwriter. I like to think of songwriting as poetry set to music. "Poetry: the best words in the best order." -Samuel Taylor Coleridge
