That led to the publication of her first book, Between Interruptions: Thirty Women Tell the Truth about Motherhood, and then to leading dozens of writing courses, workshops and retreats focussing on writing as a pathway to self-discovery and healing. When she is not managing her media relations business, she is writing poetry, walking in the woods or swimming in the Pacific Ocean. https://www.corihoward.com/books daily 0.75 2026-03-16 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ec321c2af33de48734cc929/1618511387030-5LI1E5QMVTQ2RY9S00A4/20140228_Trade+151_0046+1.jpg Books https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/637fedf26a76884fff99fa64/36487b3a-5067-4002-8ceb-e424f1144bbc/cori-howard-writer-author-publicist-journalist-poet-retreats-vancouver-british-columbia-home-books-global.png Books https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/637fedf26a76884fff99fa64/acdaa3d0-b916-44c6-8b48-55a4daa7aed5/cori-howard-writer-author-publicist-journalist-poet-retreats-vancouver-british-columbia-home-books-cbc.png Books https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/637fedf26a76884fff99fa64/118f8d06-4691-4ff6-9b60-85e042a7e52a/cori-howard-writer-author-publicist-journalist-poet-retreats-vancouver-british-columbia-home-books-co-op.png Books https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/637fedf26a76884fff99fa64/b356f258-684a-4e95-9e00-d5ff1c02f75d/The+Fifth+Season+cover.png Books - The Fifth Season In The Fifth Season, award-winning journalist, essayist and poet Cori Howard explores the seasons of a woman’s life, from marriage and motherhood to divorce, what she aptly names “disaster dating” and reinvention. Through the arc of midlife, these poems offer a map back to the self and a return to longing and new freedoms. In poetry that is raw, honest and personal, Howard carries the reader through the thresholds of her life, illuminating the experiences of womanhood and the questions we ask ourselves during times of transition and reimagination. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/637fedf26a76884fff99fa64/099cb0a7-77bb-4199-9922-990394d138fc/cori-howard-writer-author-publicist-journalist-poet-retreats-vancouver-british-columbia-home-books-between-interruptions.jpeg Books - Most mothers don’t have time for long conversations. They may want them, crave them, begin them again and again—but they are constantly interrupted by kids, partners, work and the day-to-day of busy lives. Between Interruptions is a remarkable collection of original essays by Canadian writers that explores what is unspoken, cut off or lost in those interrupted conversations. Between Interruptions asks what becomes of us when our children’s lives interrupt our own. What prayers, what cries, what taboo thoughts are suddenly left unspoken? Marina Jimenez struggles with her decision to return to her job as a journalist—in a war zone. Carrie-Anne Moss lets us into her home during her self-imposed, forty-day seclusion after the birth of her first son. Chantal Kreviazuk learns to surrender to the limitations of motherhood. Joanna Streetly struggles to find a balance between protecting and letting go. Elizabeth Renzetti and Katrina Onstad search for friends in mommyland. And Estee Klar-Wolfond finds perfection in autism. Refreshingly honest, Between Interruptions highlights the differences and similarities between mothers today and generations past. It is, without a doubt, a conversation worth having. https://www.corihoward.com/contact daily 0.75 2025-08-05 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/637fedf26a76884fff99fa64/64027640-7638-4e4b-a5ac-580b42fe1b12/cori-howard-writer-author-publicist-journalist-poet-retreats-vancouver-british-columbia-contact-top-2.jpg Contact - CONTACT CORI Feel free to send me an email or fill out the contact form below. https://www.corihoward.com/retreats daily 0.75 2025-08-05 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ec321c2af33de48734cc929/1618511387030-5LI1E5QMVTQ2RY9S00A4/20140228_Trade+151_0046+1.jpg Retreats https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/637fedf26a76884fff99fa64/a1b714b0-8478-41a4-bcb3-7abee90e2d8a/bowen5-1024x768.jpg Retreats Group of women in a yoga or meditation class inside a geodesic dome, sitting on yoga mats with various props, some smiling and others in relaxed poses. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/637fedf26a76884fff99fa64/48ce5b65-da53-4bab-96dc-ace36986f3b9/SC-10_1.jpg Retreats A lakeside view with a mountain background, green trees, and a small sandy area with a wooden bench and sign for Wilderness Resort & Recreation, under a clear blue sky. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/637fedf26a76884fff99fa64/54618181-a073-46e9-aaba-8771bed412ae/bowen3.jpg Retreats Two women sitting inside a tent with a green outdoor background, one smiling and one looking away, with a blue candle holder and some objects on a wooden surface nearby. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/637fedf26a76884fff99fa64/acf61c1c-db8a-4301-a055-ccf007db9fe3/bowen-1024x771.jpg Retreats Interior of a geodesic dome with yoga mats and folded towels, overlooking a wooded outdoor landscape with trees and a pathway. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/637fedf26a76884fff99fa64/882fadee-ab64-410f-a30f-5d2012cca26c/SC2_1-1024x768.jpg Retreats Group of women posing outdoors on a wooden deck, with mountains, trees, and a cloudy sky in the background. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/637fedf26a76884fff99fa64/ab5d918c-44ed-48d4-adf7-e8953aee5928/76905956_10156673627017283_3319410842453147648_o.jpg Retreats Two people sit on yoga mats inside a geodesic dome with a mountain landscape outside.
