Meet Kelly Watt.

Kelly Watt’s gritty collection of flash prose and poetry, The Weeping Degree: How Astrology Saved Me From Suicide, was published by Wild Rising Press and became an international Amazon bestseller in August, 2024. The book explores how a wound can transform through time into a gift. Her short fiction and nonfiction have been published internationally, anthologized, and longlisted four times in national CBC contests. Watt has published two books—the gothic novel Mad Dog (2001/2019), which was a Globe and Mail notable book after initial publication, and the mini travel companion Camino Meditations (2014).
