About Awkward Emily
Awkward Emily lives in two worlds, the emotional and the social. Through stories Emotionally Awkward Emily explores overthinking, catastrophizing, and the inner spirals we don't say out loud. Through greeting cards, Socially Awkward Emily brings humour to the everyday moments that make us cringe, laugh, and replay conversations later. Together, it's about finding honesty, humour, and a little bit of relief in being human.
Stories, feelings, and a little bit of awkward---brought to life through books and greeting cards that connect on a human level.
My Creative Work
From the introspective world of Emotionally Awkward Emily to the humour of Socially Awkward Emily greeting cards, my work explores what it means to be human---awkward moments and all.
My books
Dive into stories that entertain, enlighten, and engage. Emotionally honest stories with a hint of awkward---where real moments turn into something meaningful.
Greeting cards
Original designs with heartfelt and gently honest messages---made for the moments that are hard to put into words, and even sometimes harder to say out loud.
The creative process
My drawing table, where ideas take shape.
Each book and greeting card is made with care, shaped slowly through sketching, writing, and reworking ideas until they feel right.

My story, your connection
From the heart of Stratford, Ontario, I pour my experiences and imagination into every book and greeting card. Through Awkward Emily and Emma Feels the Rainbow, I create stories and characters that connect through sharing smiles, small moments of honesty, humour and heart. Each piece is a little bit of me, made for you.
